Subject: [PATCH] staging: rtl8192u: change get_key functions to return 0 instead of -1
Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2022 07:23:28 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Yl/7QPKXer7YtXOs@bertie> (raw)

Currently, these three get_key functions return -1 when the provided len
value is less a specific key length value, which can result in buffer
overflow depending on how the returned value is used. These functions are
used in three places in ieee80211/ieee80211_wx.c:

  ieee80211_wx_get_encode() :
    The behavior of this function will be unchanged.

  ieee80211_wx_get_encode_ext() :
    The result of the get_key function is written to ext->key_len,
    resulting in a buffer overflow if the result is negative.

  ieee80211_wx_set_encode() :
    The behavior of this function will change. When len is less than the
    key length value, it will set a default key of all 0.
