[PATCH wireless v2 0/2] wifi: rtw89: fix IE length passed to cfg80211_find_ie()

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

Two callers of cfg80211_find_ie() in rtw89 pass skb->len as the IE
data length, but since ies points past the management frame header
and fixed fields, the correct length is skb->len minus the header
offset. This causes cfg80211_find_ie() to potentially read past the
IE data boundary.

Changes since v1:
  - Straightened the cfg80211_find_ie() call in wow.c to a single line
  - Removed unnecessary blank line in wow.c
  Both per Ping-Ke Shih review feedback.

[PATCH wireless v2 1/2] wifi: rtw89: fix IE length passed to cfg80211_find_ie() in 6 GHz probe

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

rtw89_core_cancel_6ghz_probe_tx() computes a pointer to the IE area
from a beacon/probe response frame:

    ies = mgmt->u.beacon.variable;

but then passes skb->len as the IE data length to cfg80211_find_ie().
Since skb->len covers the entire frame including the 36-byte management
header and fixed fields, cfg80211_find_ie() may read up to 36 bytes
past the end of the actual IE data.

Fix by computing the correct IE data length as skb->len minus the
header offset, and validating the minimum frame length before parsing.

The use of cfg80211_find_ie() was removed by [1].
Please use https://github.com/pkshih/rtw.git as codebase.

[PATCH wireless v2 2/2] wifi: rtw89: fix IE length passed to cfg80211_find_ie() in WoW AKM

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

__rtw89_wow_parse_akm() computes a pointer to the IE area from an
association request frame:

    ies = mgmt->u.assoc_req.variable;

but then passes skb->len as the IE data length to cfg80211_find_ie().
Since skb->len covers the entire frame including the 28-byte management
header and fixed fields, cfg80211_find_ie() may read past the end of the
actual IE data.

Fix by computing the correct IE data length as skb->len minus the
header offset, and validating the minimum frame length before parsing.
