Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 2/2] wifi: mt76: mt7915: bound the device EEPROM address before the EFUSE copy
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 21:59:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910015903.3948036-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910015903.3948036-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Bryam Vargas <hexlabsecurity@proton.me>
[ Upstream commit 44b5adfe49499f53002737f5fe81d608c08122fc ]
mt7915_mcu_get_eeprom() copies a fixed EFUSE block into the driver's
dev->mt76.eeprom.data buffer at the offset reported by the MCU response
(res->addr, a device-controlled __le32) without checking it against the
buffer size. A malicious or malfunctioning device can report an arbitrary
address and drive a 16-byte out-of-bounds write past eeprom.data.
Reject a response whose address would place the copy outside eeprom.data
before deriving the destination pointer. Devices that echo the requested
in-bounds offset are unaffected.
