+Candidate: CVE-2007-5938
+Description:
+ The iwl_set_rate function in compatible/iwl3945-base.c in iwlwifi 1.1.21 and earlier
+ dereferences an iwl_get_hw_mode return value without checking for NULL, which might
+ allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via unspecified
+ vectors during module initialization.
