Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB access from firmware ADDBA window size
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 22:23:47 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260415222349.1541181-2-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260415222349.1541181-1-tristmd@gmail.com>

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

aggr_recv_addba_req_evt() logs a debug message when the firmware-supplied
win_sz is outside [AGGR_WIN_SZ_MIN, AGGR_WIN_SZ_MAX] but does not
return. The out-of-range win_sz is then used in TID_WINDOW_SZ() to
compute a kzalloc size and stored in rxtid->hold_q_sz, leading to
zero-size or overflowed allocations and subsequent OOB access.

Return early when win_sz is out of the valid range.

Fixes: bdcd81707973 ("Add ath6kl cleaned up driver")
