  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  wifi: mac80211: Fix static_branch_dec() underflow for aql_disable.  syzbot reported static_branch_dec() underflow in aql_enable_write(). [0]  The problem is that aql_enable_write() does not serialise concurrent write()s to the debugfs.  aql_enable_write() checks static_key_false(\u0026aql_disable.key) and later calls static_branch_inc() or static_branch_dec(), but the state may change between the two calls.  aql_disable does not need to track inc/dec.  Let's use static_branch_enable() and static_branch_disable().
