Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: pcie: handle randbuf allocation failure
The kzalloc() in brcmf_pcie_download_fw_nvram() will return null
if the physical memory has run out. As a result, if we use
get_random_bytes() to generate random bytes in the randbuf, the
null pointer dereference bug will happen.
In order to prevent allocation failure, this patch adds a separate
function using buffer on kernel stack to generate random bytes in
the randbuf, which could prevent the kernel stack from overflow.
in linux kernel wifi, the kzalloc() in brcmf_pcie_download_fw_nvram() will return null if the physical memory has run out. Thereafter if get_random_bytes() is used, a null pointer dereference is triggered, causing allocation failure.
