Subject: [PATCH v3 01/22] staging: rtl8723bs: fix potential out-of-bounds read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie
Date: Sun,  8 Feb 2026 11:58:32 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260208105853.46192-2-luka.gejak@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260208105853.46192-1-luka.gejak@linux.dev>

From: Luka Gejak <luka.gejak@linux.dev>

The current code checks 'i + 5 < in_len' at the end of the if statement.
However, it accesses 'in_ie[i + 5]' before that check, which can lead
to an out-of-bounds read. Move the length check to the beginning of the
conditional to ensure the index is within bounds before accessing the
array.
