[PATCH v3 0/3] wifi: ath6kl: firmware trust boundary hardening

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

This series adds missing bounds checks for firmware-controlled fields
in the Qualcomm ath6kl driver.

Patch 1 returns early on invalid ADDBA window size. Patch 2 validates
connect event IE lengths. Patch 3 checks TX complete handler num_msg.

Changes in v3:
  - Regenerated from wireless-next with proper git format-patch.

Changes in v2:
  - No code changes from v1.

Tristan Madani (3):
  wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB access from firmware ADDBA window size
  wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware IE lengths in connect event
  wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware num_msg in TX complete
    handler

[PATCH v3 1/3] wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB access from firmware ADDBA window size

[Tristan Madani]

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.

[PATCH v3 2/3] wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware IE lengths in connect event

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

The firmware-controlled beacon_ie_len, assoc_req_len, and assoc_resp_len
fields in ath6kl_wmi_connect_event_rx() are not validated against the
buffer length. Their sum (up to 765) can exceed the actual WMI event
data, causing out-of-bounds reads during IE parsing and state corruption
of wmi->is_wmm_enabled.

Add a check that the total IE length fits within the buffer.

[PATCH v3 3/3] wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware num_msg in TX complete handler

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

The firmware-controlled num_msg field (u8, 0-255) drives the loop in
ath6kl_wmi_tx_complete_event_rx() without validation against the buffer
length. This allows out-of-bounds reads of up to 1020 bytes past the
WMI event buffer when the firmware sends an inflated num_msg.

Add a check that the buffer is large enough to hold num_msg entries.
