In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ieee80211_monitor_select_queue()
ieee80211_monitor_select_queue() validates the skb length using skb->len
before dereferencing pointers into skb->data to access the 802.11 header.
However, skb->len includes data in both the linear head buffer and
non-linear fragments/pages. When AF_PACKET sends a packet large enough to
become non-linear, the 802.11 header at skb->data + len_rthdr may extend
past the linear head buffer even though skb->len appears sufficient.
This leads to a slab-out-of-bounds read when accessing hdr->frame_control,
as the kernel reads beyond the allocated skb head buffer:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ieee80211_monitor_select_queue+0x1ed/0x220
syzbot has hit the same issues.
Fix this by checking skb_headlen(skb) (which gives the length of the
linear data region) instead of skb->len before dereferencing skb->data
pointers. This ensures the required bytes are actually present in the
linear portion of the skb.
Apply the same fix to ieee80211_validate_radiotap_len() which has the
same class of bug: it uses skb->len to validate accesses to skb->data,
and to the corresponding checks in ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit(): for
drivers advertising NETIF_F_SG the skb is not linearized before
ndo_start_xmit, so the 802.11 header can be read past the linear
buffer there as well.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mac80211 wireless subsystem. A local attacker can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) or potentially disclose sensitive memory by transmitting specially crafted network packets. This issue occurs because the kernel checks the total packet length instead of verifying that the linear buffer contains the entire header, resulting in an out-of-bounds memory read.
