Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix sched scan IE sizing
Scheduled scan built the probe request before iwl_mvm_scan_fits(),
so oversized IEs could be copied into the fixed preq buffer before
length validation. Move iwl_mvm_build_scan_probe() after the fits
check.
Also advertise max_sched_scan_ie_len using iwl_mvm_max_scan_ie_len()
so userspace limits account for driver-inserted DS/TPC bytes.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intel Wi-Fi driver (iwlwifi). During scheduled network scans, the driver copies Information Elements (IEs)—data fields used in wireless communications—into a fixed-size buffer before validating their length. A local user with network administration privileges can exploit this flaw by submitting oversized scan parameters, causing a buffer overflow. This flaw can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) by crashing the system or potentially allow arbitrary code execution.
