Subject: [PATCH wireless 2/3] wifi: mwifiex: validate intf_num in multichannel event handler
Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2026 20:58:01 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261101205802.2909524-3-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261101205802.2909524-1-tristmd@gmail.com>
From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>
The intf_num field from the multichannel group info TLV indexes the
flexible array bss_type_numlist[] without checking whether it fits
the TLV data. An intf_num larger than the available data causes reads
past the TLV boundary.
Add a check that intf_num does not exceed the number of entries that
fit in the TLV data.
Fixes: 8d6b538a5eac ("mwifiex: handle multichannel event")
