Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB write in HT_caps_handler and OOB read in OnAssocRsp
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 11:16:19 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428091621.739680-1-hossu.alexandru@gmail.com> (raw)
v3, addressing Dan Carpenter's and Luka Gejak's feedback on v2.
Greg, please drop your patch and take this one instead.
Changes from v2:
- 1/2: switch from min_t() to umin() (Dan Carpenter)
- 1/2: keep truncation approach rather than reverting to early
return; early return bypasses HT_caps_enable = 1, silently
disabling HT mode for APs that append extra bytes to the HT
Capabilities IE (Luka Gejak, AI review)
- 1/2: expand commit message to document the early return tradeoff
- 1/2: add changelog with links to AI review and Greg's v1 reply
2/2 is unchanged from v2.
