Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: brcmfmac: return error when getting invalid max_flowrings from dongle When firmware hit trap at initialization, host will read abnormal max_flowrings number from dongle, and it will cause kernel panic when doing iowrite to initialize dongle ring. To detect this error at early stage, we directly return error when getting invalid max_flowrings(>256).
Отчет
The patch adds input validation for max_flowrings in the brcmfmac PCIe driver to prevent a kernel panic when a trapped/buggy dongle firmware returns an invalid ring count (>256). This issue requires a malfunctioning or tampered device firmware during initialization and results in availability impact only.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent module brcmfmac from being loaded. Please see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically.
