+Description: 
+Ubuntu-Description: 
+ Chris Evans discovered that the 802.11 network stack did not correctly
+ handle certain QOS frames.  A remote attacker on the local wireless network
+ could send specially crafted packets that would panic the kernel, resulting
+ in a denial of service.
+Notes: 
+ > The summary is that an evil 80211 frame can crash out a victim's
+ > machine. It only applies to drivers using the 80211 wireless code, and
+ > only then to certain drivers (and even then depends on a card's
+ > firmware not dropping a dubious packet). I must confess I'm not
+ > keeping track of Linux wireless support, and the different protocol
+ > stacks etc.
