Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-03-06 16:02:17 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: avoid NULL pointer dereference

When iterating over the links of a vif, we need to make sure that the
pointer is valid (in other words - that the link exists) before
dereferncing it.
Use for_each_vif_active_link that also does the check.
