Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: fix potential buffer underflow in ath11k_hal_rx_msdu_list_get()
When the first entry in msdu_details has a zero buffer address,
the code accesses msdu_details[i - 1] with i == 0, causing a
buffer underflow.
Fix similarly to ath12k_wifi7_hal_rx_msdu_list_get() by adding
a separate check for i == 0 before the main condition to prevent
the out-of-bounds access.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68355 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
