 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: reject TDLS operations
 when station is not associated syzbot triggered a WARN in ieee80211_tdls_oper() by sending
 NL80211_TDLS_ENABLE_LINK immediately after NL80211_CMD_CONNECT, before association completed and without
 prior TDLS setup. This left internal state like sdata->u.mgd.tdls_peer uninitialized, leading to a
