Description Evgenii Shatokhin 2018-06-12 23:21:31 MSK
Added a fix from Ubuntu for the kernels 4.14+.
Comment 1 Evgenii Shatokhin 2018-06-12 23:29:54 MSK
Advisory:
The driver for Broadcom WiFi adapters was updated with one more fix for the kernels 4.14 or newer. The fix makes the driver pass the correct arguments to kernel_read() function - without this, the kernel could crash in certain conditions.
