[PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: fix missing shared-key auth challenge length check

[Panagiotis Petrakopoulos <npetrakopoulos2003@gmail.com>]

The WEP shared-key authentication handlers use the challenge-text
element's attacker-controlled length without checking it against the
fixed 128-byte chg_txt buffer.

In OnAuthClient() the length from rtw_get_ie() - up to 255 - is used
to perform memcpy() into the 128-byte pmlmeinfo->chg_txt, so a
malicious AP sending a malformed WLAN_EID_CHALLENGE element can
overflow/underfill chg_txt by up to 127 bytes. It is reachable over the
air, before association, during shared-key authentication. In the case
of an overflow, the driver can write out of bounds. In the case of an
underfill, the driver can echo stale buffer memory. In OnAuth() a
similar issue is observed. The driver compares a full 128 bytes
regardless of the element's length, reading past a shorter element.

The challenge text is defined to be exactly 128 octets, which is
already provided as the WLAN_AUTH_CHALLENGE_LEN define; require the
element to be exactly that length in both handlers.

Compile-tested only; I do not have RTL8723BS hardware to test the
shared-key authentication path at runtime. The change only rejects
challenge elements whose length differs from the spec-mandated 128
bytes, so conforming peers are unaffected.
