Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: fix nlmsg allocation in cfg80211_ft_event
Date: Thu, 17 May 2018 16:25:03 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <000901d3ede2$78a3aa20$69eafe60$@codeaurora.org> (raw)
From: Dedy Lansky <dlansky@codeaurora.org>
Allocation size of nlmsg in cfg80211_ft_event is based on ric_ies_len
and doesn't take into account ies_len. This leads to
NL80211_CMD_FT_EVENT message construction failure in case ft_event
contains large enough ies buffer.
Add ies_len to the nlmsg allocation size.
