+Subject: [PATCH] wifi: cfg80211: fix BSS refcounting bugs
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+commit 0b7808818cb9df6680f98996b8e9a439fa7bcc2f upstream.
+
+There are multiple refcounting bugs related to multi-BSSID:
+ - In bss_ref_get(), if the BSS has a hidden_beacon_bss, then
+ the bss pointer is overwritten before checking for the
+ transmitted BSS, which is clearly wrong. Fix this by using
+ the bss_from_pub() macro.
+
+ - In cfg80211_bss_update() we copy the transmitted_bss pointer
+ from tmp into new, but then if we release new, we'll unref
+ it erroneously. We already set the pointer and ref it, but
+ need to NULL it since it was copied from the tmp data.
+
+ - In cfg80211_inform_single_bss_data(), if adding to the non-
+ transmitted list fails, we unlink the BSS and yet still we
+ return it, but this results in returning an entry without
+ a reference. We shouldn't return it anyway if it was broken
+ enough to not get added there.
+
+This fixes CVE-2022-42720.
