Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: Set n_channels after allocating struct cfg80211_scan_request
Date: Fri, 9 May 2025 11:46:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250509184641.work.542-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
Make sure that n_channels is set after allocating the
struct cfg80211_registered_device::int_scan_req member. Seen with
syzkaller:
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in net/mac80211/scan.c:1208:5
index 0 is out of range for type 'struct ieee80211_channel *[] __counted_by(n_channels)' (aka 'struct ieee80211_channel *[]')
This was missed in the initial conversions because I failed to locate
the allocation likely due to the "sizeof(void *)" not matching the
"channels" array type.

Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/680fd171.050a0220.2b69d1.045e.GAE@google.com/
Fixes: e3eac9f32ec0 ("wifi: cfg80211: Annotate struct cfg80211_scan_request with __counted_by")
