      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: mac80211: release mesh path quota on failed additions\n\nRepeated failed or duplicate mesh path additions can exhaust\nMESH_MAX_MPATHS while the path table holds fewer paths, which stops new\npaths to reachable destinations from being created.\n\nmesh_path_add() reserves a slot before allocating and inserting a path.\nIf allocation fails, the function returns without releasing the slot. If\nthe rhashtable insertion reports an error or an existing destination, the\nfunction discards its candidate but retains the reservation. No new path\nis installed in any of these cases.\n\nRelease the reservation whenever the candidate is not installed.",
