In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wilc1000: fix out-of-bounds read in P2P public action frames
wilc_wfi_p2p_rx() and mgmt_tx() start parsing a frame once
ieee80211_is_public_action() returns true. That helper only verifies the
frame is long enough for the action category field, that is
offsetofend(struct ieee80211_mgmt, u.action.category), 25 bytes. Both
functions then read the P2P public action header up to oui_subtype at
offset 30 and pass "size - ie_offset" to cfg80211_find_vendor_ie(), where
ie_offset is offsetof(struct ieee80211_mgmt, u) + sizeof(*d), i.e. 32.
A public action frame of 25 to 31 bytes passes the check but is shorter
than that 32 byte header, so oui_subtype can be read out of bounds, and
because the length is unsigned, "size - ie_offset" underflows to a value
close to 4 GiB. cfg80211_find_vendor_ie() takes an unsigned int length,
so even the size_t subtraction in mgmt_tx() is truncated to the same
value. It then walks far past the buffer searching for a vendor element
until it reaches unmapped memory.
In the receive path the frame arrives over the air and needs no
association, so a nearby unauthenticated device can crash the host while
it is in P2P listen. Reject frames shorter than the P2P public action
header in both paths before dereferencing it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's wilc1000 wireless driver. The driver fails to adequately validate the length of incoming Wi-Fi Direct (P2P) public action frames before reading the frame header, leading to an integer underflow and out-of-bounds memory read. A nearby unauthenticated attacker can exploit this issue by transmitting specially crafted wireless frames to crash the host system, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
