1) Improper control of a resource through its lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-90357)

CWE-ID: CWE-664 - Improper control of a resource through its lifetime

The vulnerability allows a local user to corrupt kernel driver state.

The vulnerability exists due to improper resource lifecycle management in the mt7915 TWT flow list when handling a TWT agreement rejected by the MCU. A local user can trigger a rejected TWT agreement to corrupt kernel driver state.

A reused flow slot can remain linked in the TWT list, leaving a dangling entry that is later traversed.
