Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 TM MFP Expired Pointer Dereference (CVE-2026-46125)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 506454

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

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

wifi: mac80211: remove station if connection prep fails

If connection preparation fails for MLO connections, then the interface is completely reset to non-MLD. In this case, we must not keep the station since it's related to the link of the vif being removed. Delete an existing station. Any 'new_sta' is already being removed, so that doesn't need changes.

This fixes a use-after-free/double-free in debugfs if that's enabled, because a vif going from MLD (and to MLD, but that's not relevant here) recreates its entire debugfs.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
