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

mac802154: check local interfaces before deleting sdata list

rdev_del_virtual_intf_deprecated list_del(&sdata->list)

ieee802154_if_remove

list_del_rcu

The net device has been unregistered, since the rcu grace period,

unregistration must be run before ieee802154_if_remove.

To avoid this issue, add a check for local->interfaces before deleting

sdata list.
