      "title": "wifi: wilc1000: validate assoc response length before subtracting header",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: wilc1000: validate assoc response length before subtracting header\n\nwilc_parse_assoc_resp_info() computes the trailing IE length as\n\n\ties_len = buffer_len - sizeof(*res);\n\nwithout first checking that buffer_len is at least sizeof(struct\nwilc_assoc_resp) (6 bytes). buffer_len is the length reported for a\nreceived association response (host_int_parse_assoc_resp_info() passes\nhif_drv->assoc_resp / assoc_resp_info_len straight in) and must be\nvalidated before the driver accesses the fixed header.\n\nFor a frame shorter than the 6-byte fixed header, the subtraction wraps.\nFor a four-byte response the result is truncated to a u16 ies_len of\n65534, so kmemdup() then attempts to copy 65534 bytes starting at\nbuffer + sizeof(*res), beyond the valid association-response data\n(CWE-125). A response shorter than four bytes can also cause an\nout-of-bounds read of res->status_code at offsets 2 and 3.\n\nReject frames too short to hold the fixed header before touching the\nheader or computing ies_len. Also set the connection status to a failure\non this path: the caller falls through to a\n\"conn_info->status == WLAN_STATUS_SUCCESS\" check after the parser\nreturns, so leaving the status untouched could let a malformed short\nresponse be treated as a successful association.",
