Hi Bing,
The patch 5e6e3a92b9a4: "wireless: mwifiex: initial commit for
Marvell mwifiex driver" from Mar 21, 2011, leads to the following
static checker warning:
drivers/net/wireless/mwifiex/sta_ioctl.c:1410
mwifiex_set_gen_ie_helper()
error: memcmp() 'pvendor_ie->oui' too small (3 vs 4)
1390 mwifiex_set_gen_ie_helper(struct mwifiex_private *priv, u8 *ie_data_ptr,
1391 u16 ie_len)
1392 {
1393 int ret = 0;
1394 struct ieee_types_vendor_header *pvendor_ie;
1395 const u8 wpa_oui[] = { 0x00, 0x50, 0xf2, 0x01 };
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4 byte array.
1396 const u8 wps_oui[] = { 0x00, 0x50, 0xf2, 0x04 };
1397
1398 /* If the passed length is zero, reset the buffer */
1399 if (!ie_len) {
1400 priv->gen_ie_buf_len = 0;
1401 priv->wps.session_enable = false;
1402
1403 return 0;
1404 } else if (!ie_data_ptr) {
1405 return -1;
1406 }
1407 pvendor_ie = (struct ieee_types_vendor_header *) ie_data_ptr;
1408 /* Test to see if it is a WPA IE, if not, then it is a gen IE */
1409 if (((pvendor_ie->element_id == WLAN_EID_WPA) &&
1410 (!memcmp(pvendor_ie->oui, wpa_oui, sizeof(wpa_oui)))) ||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
->oui is only a 3 byte array so we're reading past the end for this
comparison.
1411 (pvendor_ie->element_id == WLAN_EID_RSN)) {
There are a couple other similar warnings as well:
drivers/net/wireless/mwifiex/sta_ioctl.c:1435 mwifiex_set_gen_ie_helper()
error: memcmp() 'pvendor_ie->oui' too small (3 vs 4)
drivers/net/wireless/mwifiex/scan.c:1177 mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie()
error: memcmp() 'vendor_ie->vend_hdr.oui' too small (3 vs 4)
drivers/net/wireless/mwifiex/scan.c:1185 mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie()
error: memcmp() 'vendor_ie->vend_hdr.oui' too small (3 vs 4)
