In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: cfg80211: detect stuck ECSA element in probe resp

We recently added some validation that we don't try to connect to an AP that is currently in a channel switch process, since that might want the channel to be quiet or we might not be able to connect in time to hear the switching in a beacon. This was in commit c09c4f31998b ("wifi: mac80211: don't connect to an AP while it's in a CSA process").

However, we promptly got a report that this caused new connection failures, and it turns out that the AP that we now cannot connect to is permanently advertising an extended channel switch announcement, even with quiet. The AP in question was an Asus RT-AC53, with firmware 3.0.0.4.38010760-g21a5898.

As a first step, attempt to detect that we're dealing with such a situation, so mac80211 can use this later.

Improper Authentication in ASUS router modules allows an unauthenticated nearby user to send an HTTP request and forge an access ticket, subsequently enabling the user to perform administrator operations. Refer to the ' Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command in certain ASUS routers allows remote user to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges via crafted parameters sent to the router while the device is in its factory-default state.Refer to the ' Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command (“OS Command Injection”) and Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in an ASUS router model allow an attacker to trick a logged-in administrator into visiting a phishing website, causing the router to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges. Refer to the ' Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

An Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource vulnerability in the ASUS DriverHub update process allows privilege escalation due to improper protection of required execution resources during the validation phase, permitting a local user to make unprivileged modifications. This allows the altered resource to pass system checks and be executed with elevated privileges upon a user-initiated update. Refer to the 'Security Update for ASUS DriverHub' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

A Download of Code Without Integrity Check vulnerability in the update modules in ASUS Member Center(华硕大厅) allows a local user to achieve privilege escalation to Administrator via exploitation of a Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOC-TOU) during the update process, where an unexpected payload is substituted for a legitimate one immediately after download, and subsequently executed with administrative privileges upon user consent. Refer to the 'Security Update for ASUS Member Center' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ("SQL Injection") in the web management interface of certain ASUS router models allows a remote authenticated user to disclose confidential information via a crafted request that bypasses existing input validation Refer to the '  Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

An Improper Validation of Integrity Check Value and Improper Certificate Validation in certain ASUS router models allows a remote man-in-the-middle(MITM) user to make the router download and execute arbitrary command via a spoofed server. Refer to the '  Security Update for ASUS Router Firmware  ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains in ASUS GameSDK allows a remote user to obtain a local user’s NTLM hash by convincing the user to visit a crafted web page that sends a request containing a UNC path to the application’s local service endpoint. This can result in information disclosure or data tampering, may cause GameSDK to become unavailable, and may also enable access to the victim’s information on other services. Refer to the ' Security Update for ASUS GameSDK  ' section on the ASUS Security Advisory for more information.

Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints and External Control of File Name or Path in Aura Wallpaper Service allow a local user to perform file operations by sending crafted commands containing an arbitrary file path and bypassing the service’s path restrictions .
