Title
wifi: mac80211: fix race condition on enabling fast-xmit
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: fix race condition on enabling fast-xmit fast-xmit must only be enabled after the sta has been uploaded to the driver, otherwise it could end up passing the not-yet-uploaded sta via drv_tx calls to the driver, leading to potential crashes because of uninitialized drv_priv data. Add a missing sta->uploaded check and re-check fast xmit after inserting a sta.

Per WiFi frame-injection guidance this is Adjacent, requiring only radio range of a mesh/IBSS node.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race \u2014 the beacon that triggers `sta_info_insert_rcu()` (which sleeps in `sta_info_insert_drv_state()`, widening the window to milliseconds) and the PM-bit-toggling QoS-data frames that drive `ieee80211_check_fast_xmit()` from softirq \u2014 and can retry indefinitely by rotating source MACs; the IBSS `drv_sta_state` failure path reaches the same state deterministically.\nPR:N - Open 802.11s mesh with kernel MPM (`__mesh_sta_info_alloc`) and non-RSN IBSS (`ieee80211_ibss_finish_sta`) pre-move the peer to `IEEE80211_STA_AUTHORIZED` before insertion, so station creation happens with zero credentials. The attacker is an unauthenticated wireless peer with no account on the target.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed; a node simply operating in mesh or IBSS mode processes the attacker\u0027s beacons and data frames automatically in the RX path.\nS:U - The corruption occurs in mac80211/driver structures within the kernel\u0027s own security authority, with no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - Passing a never-uploaded `ieee80211_sta` to `drv_tx()` makes drivers use zeroed `drv_priv` \u2014 e.g. mt76 WCID index 0, which aliases another station\u0027s hardware key/rate-table entry, so frames are transmitted under the wrong security context \u2014 and the resulting driver-state confusion reads uninitialized/foreign memory, giving a disclosure primitive.\nI:H - This is a state/type confusion on driver-private data: `list_add` on zeroed `list_head`s (ath9k `ath_atx_tid`), indexing per-station driver arrays with an uninitialized index, and in the IBSS unwind case touching resources already freed by `drv_sta_remove`, all of which constitute memory corruption leveragable for write primitives and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - The immediate and near-certain effect is a kernel oops in softirq (NULL/near-NULL dereference from zeroed driver list heads) or a firmware/queue assert, remotely triggerable and repeatable, taking down the wireless node."

Per WiFi frame-injection guidance this is Adjacent, requiring only radio range of a mesh/IBSS node.\\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race \\u2014 the beacon that triggers `sta_info_insert_rcu()` (which sleeps in `sta_info_insert_drv_state()`, widening the window to milliseconds) and the PM-bit-toggling QoS-data frames that drive `ieee80211_check_fast_xmit()` from softirq \\u2014 and can retry indefinitely by rotating source MACs; the IBSS `drv_sta_state` failure path reaches the same state deterministically.\\nPR:N - Open 802.11s mesh with kernel MPM (`__mesh_sta_info_alloc`) and non-RSN IBSS (`ieee80211_ibss_finish_sta`) pre-move the peer to `IEEE80211_STA_AUTHORIZED` before insertion, so station creation happens with zero credentials. The attacker is an unauthenticated wireless peer with no account on the target.\\nUI:N - No victim action is needed; a node simply operating in mesh or IBSS mode processes the attacker\u0027s beacons and data frames automatically in the RX path.\\nS:U - The corruption occurs in mac80211/driver structures within the kernel\u0027s own security authority, with no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\\nC:H - Passing a never-uploaded `ieee80211_sta` to `drv_tx()` makes drivers use zeroed `drv_priv` \\u2014 e.g. mt76 WCID index 0, which aliases another station\u0027s hardware key/rate-table entry, so frames are transmitted under the wrong security context \\u2014 and the resulting driver-state confusion reads uninitialized/foreign memory, giving a disclosure primitive.\\nI:H - This is a state/type confusion on driver-private data: `list_add` on zeroed `list_head`s (ath9k `ath_atx_tid`), indexing per-station driver arrays with an uninitialized index, and in the IBSS unwind case touching resources already freed by `drv_sta_remove`, all of which constitute memory corruption leveragable for write primitives and control-flow hijack.\\nA:H - The immediate and near-certain effect is a kernel oops in softirq (NULL/near-NULL dereference from zeroed driver list heads) or a firmware/queue assert, remotely triggerable and repeatable, taking down the wireless node.\"}]}], \"affected\": [{\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\",
