there is a 1 day old report about brand new Linux WiFi vulnerabilities.

My guess is there will be a 22.03.2 SR just a couple of days away.

Whoa...this is quite serious...so much so, I think I'm the only one so far who will say that in English...except here:

Hi everyone,

In the following, I quickly introduce the PoC and briefly describe each CVE.

Please see attached:
* The PCAP files containing the Wifi frames triggering the vulnerabilities and
* inject-pcap.c to inject the Wifi frames into the 802.11 stack
* A complete log for each CVE

Thanks to Johannes Berg, who provided the inject-pcap.c script, quickly worked on all the patches and resolved the
issues!

The PoC uses mac80211_hwsim to inject the frames, but the vulnerabilities are - to my knowledge - driver-independent,
and we assume that they are exploitable over the air.
All the malformed frames are Beacon frames.

# PoC Execution

Boot a kernel with mac80211_hwsim included or load the module.
Install libnl-3.0 libnl-genl-3.0 libpcap, which is required by the PoC, and compile it as follows:

It's working well for me on my WRT3200ACM. Thanks for putting out another release!

[    5.895235] x86/CPU: CPU features have changed after loading microcode, but might not take effect.
[    5.913655] x86/CPU: Please consider either early loading through initrd/built-in or a potential BIOS update.

after last intel-microcode update i got this, 22.03.0 had no those messages, not even sure it's a error at all

Working great so far.
Netgear 4300V2. More than 28hours of uptime.

I'm using RPi4 and https-dns-proxy isn't working see this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/openwrt/comments/y1iyd7/help_httpsdnsproxy_isnt_working_anymore/

Sentenzo · October 15, 2022, 5:26pm

what is happended? why 22.03.2 released already? not even a week from 22.03.1 is 22.03.1 corrupted?

eginnc · October 15, 2022, 5:45pm

See here: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/openwrt-22-03-1-first-service-release/139424/32?u=eginnc
A new serious security issue was announced a couple days ago, and the OpenWrt developers have already tagged new stable versions to take care of it.

It is not as if we needed another reminder that the OpenWrt developers are awesome, but....well, they're awesome!

Ramon · October 16, 2022, 10:00am

yeah 100% agree. They are awesome. I am eagerly awaiting the release announcement though, as this bug sounds really serious. Maybe somebody should also make a bug announcement post similar to the WolfSSL bug?

Or convert this one:

Thank you very much.

Unfortunately the problem with the USB-Port permanently resetting on Linksys MR8300 or maybe all ipq40xx platforms still exists in latest OpenWRT v22.03.01

In short, upon connecting an external usb storage device, the port keeps resetting / disables power to the device for short time leading to permanent connect / disconnect loop.

Please see Linksys MR8300, OpenWrt 22.03.0-rc4, USB port-powered storage devices not working - #29 by Barney for details. Maybe it hasn't come to the developers attention yet, since it is in another forum.

Upgraded from 21.02.02 to this version; noticed something is broken with SQM on this version - can get past 600mbit with SQM enabled. Running on i3-4160 CPU @ 3.60GHz, so not CPU bound, barley touching 15% on all cores.
When I disable SQM i get full gigabit download.
Reverted to previous version for a quick test and SQM is working fine; ingress set to 930mbit, and get around 900 on download test.

Anybody else has this problem?

EDIT:
I've been troubleshooting this for at least 3 hours, and half an hour after posting this I found the culprit; it seems the processor scaling_governor changed:
Version 22.03.1 scaling_governor: ondemand performance schedutil / schedutil is selected by default
Version 21.02.2 scaling_governor: performance powersave / powersafe is selected by default

When I change the scaling_governor to ondemand - everything works as a charm, 900+ mbit with SQM, and processor going to around 8% on all cores.

EDIT2:
Setting the minimum frequency to 1.2Ghz also does the trick

RaylynnKnight · October 17, 2022, 6:54am

Your edit causes some confusion! You say 22.03.1 scaling-governor is set to "ondemand" by default and then state "When I change the scaling_govenor to ondemand -everything works as a charm". What are you changing if the default is already "ondemand"?

peras · October 17, 2022, 7:39am

Maybe this will help:

Maybe I've written it poorly; for version 22.03.1 - there are 3 different settings for scaling_governor:
ondemand
performance
schedutil

schedutil is selected by default

Anyone who installed on BT HomeHub 5A?
Is there any Boot Loop Issue?
