From dac211ec10d268b9d09000093a9fa2ac1773894f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eliad Peller Date: Sun, 13 May 2012 18:07:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fail authentication when AP denied authentication ieee80211_rx_mgmt_auth() doesn't handle denied authentication properly - it authenticates the station and waits for association (for 5 seconds) instead of failing the authentication. Fix it by destroying auth_data and bailing out instead. Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller Acked-by: Johannes Berg Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org #3.4 Signed-off-by: John W.
