From 4b5dde2d6234ff5bc68e97e6901d1f2a0a7f3749 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brian Norris Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 18:23:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mwifiex: correct channel stat buffer overflows mwifiex records information about various channels as it receives scan information. It does this by appending to a buffer that was sized to the max number of supported channels on any band, but there are numerous problems: (a) scans can return info from more than one band (e.g., both 2.4 and 5 GHz), so the determined "max" is not large enough (b) some firmware appears to return multiple results for a given channel, so the max *really* isn't large enough (c) there is no bounds checking when stashing these stats, so problems (a) and (b) can easily lead to buffer overflows Let's patch this by setting a slightly-more-correct max (that accounts for a combination of both 2.4G and 5G bands) and adding a bounds check when writing to our statistics buffer. Due to problem (b), we still might not properly report all known survey information (e.g., with "iw survey dump"), since duplicate results (or otherwise "larger than expected" results) will cause some truncation. But that's a problem for a future bugfix. (And because of this known deficiency, only log the excess at the WARN level, since that isn't visible by default in this driver and would otherwise be a bit too noisy.)
