In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: wwan: fix global oob in wwanrtnlpolicy
The variable wwanrtnllinkops assign a *bigger* maxtype which leads to a global out-of-bounds read when parsing the netlink attributes. Exactly same bug cause as the oob fixed in commit b33fb5b801c6 ("net: qualcomm: rmnet: fix global oob in rmnetpolicy").

According to the comment of nla_parse_nested_deprecated
, use correct size
IFLA_WWAN_MAX
here to fix this issue.
