CVE-2024-47718

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

wifi: rtw88: always wait for both firmware loading attempts

In 'rtw_wait_firmware_completion()', always wait for both (regular and
wowlan) firmware loading attempts. Otherwise if 'rtw_usb_intf_init()'
has failed in 'rtw_usb_probe()', 'rtw_usb_disconnect()' may issue
'ieee80211_free_hw()' when one of 'rtw_load_firmware_cb()' (usually
the wowlan one) is still in progress, causing UAF detected by KASAN.

CWE-416 Use After Free

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
