[PATCH v8 1/1] staging: rtl8723bs: fix missing frame length checks in OnAuth()

[Alexandru Hossu <hossu.alexandru@gmail.com>]

Three out-of-bounds read paths caused by missing frame length guards in
the AP-mode authentication handler OnAuth():

1. OnAuth() reads GetAddr2Ptr(pframe) without verifying the frame is at
   least WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN bytes long.

   The first operation on pframe after the AP-state guard is
   GetAddr2Ptr(pframe), which reads 6 bytes at offset 10..15 (Addr2).
   If the received frame is shorter than WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN (24 bytes),
   this reads past the end of the frame buffer.  Add:
     if (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN) return _FAIL;

   Using return _FAIL rather than goto auth_fail: the auth_fail block
   calls memcpy(pstat->hwaddr, sa, ETH_ALEN) to build a rejection
   frame, but sa has not been set at this point.

2. OnAuth() reads iv[3] inside the GetPrivacy() branch without checking
   the frame is long enough to contain the IV.

   When the Privacy bit is set, the code sets iv = pframe + WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN
   and immediately reads iv[3] to extract the key index.  If the frame is
   shorter than WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + 4 bytes, this reads past the frame
   buffer.  Add:
     if (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + 4) return _FAIL;

   Using return _FAIL: pstat has not been looked up yet and status is
   uninitialised, so goto auth_fail would send a malformed rejection frame.

3. OnAuth() reads the algorithm and sequence fields at pframe +
   WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + offset + {0,2} without verifying those offsets
   are within the frame.

   offset is 0 for open-system and 4 for WEP-encapsulated frames.  The
   reads at offset+0 and offset+2 are both 2-byte, so the last byte
   accessed is at WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + offset + 3.  Add:
     if (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + offset + 4) goto auth_fail;

   At this point sa is valid and pstat is NULL, so goto auth_fail is safe.
   WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE is set first to avoid sending a garbage
   rejection status code.

Changes in v8:
  - Change if (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN) from goto auth_fail to return _FAIL:
    sa is uninitialised at that point and auth_fail dereferences it via
    memcpy(pstat->hwaddr, sa, ETH_ALEN) to build the rejection frame
    (sashiko review of v7).
  - Add if (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + 4) return _FAIL; before iv[3] access
    in the GetPrivacy() branch: the missing length guard was a new OOB
    read path not caught in any earlier version (sashiko review of v7).
  - Set status = WLAN_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED_FAILURE before the
    if (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + offset + 4) goto auth_fail check to avoid
    sending an uninitialised status code in the rejection frame.

Changes in v7:
  - Add frame length checks for OnAuth(): guard before GetAddr2Ptr
    (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN) and guard before algorithm/seq reads
    (len < WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + offset + 4).
  - Correct commit message: rtw_get_ie() uses signed int limit and
    returns NULL when limit < 2, so the prior unsigned-underflow claim
    was incorrect (sashiko review of v6).

Changes in v6:
  - Add frame length checks for OnAuthClient(): guard before get_da()
    and guard before seq/status reads.
