In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wcn36xx: fix OOB read from short trigger BA firmware response
The firmware response length is only checked against sizeof(*rsp) (20
bytes), but when candidate_cnt >= 1, a 22-byte candidate struct is read
at buf + 20 without verifying the response contains it. This causes an
out-of-bounds read of stale heap data, corrupting the BA session state.
Add validation that the response includes the candidate data.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's wcn36xx Wi-Fi driver. This vulnerability occurs because the driver does not adequately validate the length of certain firmware responses. An attacker could potentially craft a malicious firmware response, leading to an out-of-bounds read of stale heap data. This can result in the corruption of the Block Acknowledgement (BA) session state, potentially causing a denial of service or information disclosure.
