Subject: Please backport "mwifiex: Fix NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED" to stable branches
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2019 19:24:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191122172431.GA24156@localhost> (raw)
Please backport commit 65a576e27309120e0621f54d5c81eb9128bd56be
"mwifiex: Fix NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED" to stable branches.
It is a non-CVE kind of security issue when a wifi adapter
exceeds the configured TX power limit.
The commit applies and builds against all branches from 3.16 to 4.19,
confirmed working with 4.14. It is already included in kernel 5.3.
Thanks in advance
Adrian
