Subject: [PATCH v3] Bluetooth: btmtk: validate WMT event SKB length before struct access
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2026 10:29:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260417102919.2549352-1-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>
btmtk_usb_hci_wmt_sync() casts the WMT event response SKB data to
struct btmtk_hci_wmt_evt (7 bytes) and struct btmtk_hci_wmt_evt_funcc
(9 bytes) without first checking that the SKB contains enough data.
A short firmware response causes out-of-bounds reads from SKB tailroom.
Add length validation before each struct access to prevent OOB reads
from malformed WMT event responses.
Fixes: d019930b0049 ("Bluetooth: btmtk: move btusb_mtk_hci_wmt_sync to btmtk.c")
