Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mt76: mt7996: check the RX WCID before using its station link
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2026 01:27:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261115172723.34964-1-enderaoelyther@gmail.com> (raw)

mt7996_rx_get_wcid() returns NULL when the reported WLAN index does not
map to a station entry on a valid band. Commit a3ea1c309bf3 ("wifi:
mt76: mt7996: Fix mt7996_reverse_frag0_hdr_trans for MLO") made
mt7996_reverse_frag0_hdr_trans() load msta_link->sta while declaring its
locals, ahead of the !msta check that used to reject a NULL WCID. A
header-translated first fragment without a station WCID now
dereferences a NULL pointer in the receive path.

Check the link before loading its station pointer.

Found by code review and not reproduced; compile-tested only.

AI assistance was used.
