4Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rsi: Don't default to -EOPNOTSUPP in rsi_mac80211_config This triggers a WARN_ON in ieee80211_hw_conf_init and isn't the expected behavior from the driver - other drivers default to 0 too.
Analysis
The Linux kernel's Realtek WiFi driver (rsi) incorrectly defaults to returning -EOPNOTSUPP error code in the rsi_mac80211_config function, which triggers a WARN_ON condition in ieee80211_hw_conf_init and deviates from expected driver behavior. This affects Linux kernel versions across multiple stable branches where the rsi WiFi driver is compiled and loaded. …
