Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] wifi: mwifiex: fix OOB read from firmware intf_num in multichannel event
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 22:23:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260415222327.1539269-6-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260415222327.1539269-1-tristmd@gmail.com>
From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>
The firmware-controlled intf_num is used to iterate the flexible array
bss_type_numlist[] without checking it against the TLV data length. An
inflated value causes out-of-bounds reads past the TLV data.
Clamp intf_num to the available TLV data.
Fixes: 8d6b538a5eac ("mwifiex: handle multichannel event")
