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

wifi: ath12k: Skip Rx TID cleanup for self peer

During peer create, dp setup for the peer is done where Rx TID is

updated for all the TIDs. Peer object for self peer will not go through

dp setup.

When core halts, dp cleanup is done for all the peers. While cleanup,

rx_tid::ab is accessed which causes below stack trace for self peer.
