Subject: [PATCH 1/3] wifi: mt76: mt7921: validate NIC capability payload lengths
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 13:07:20 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028050722.135598-2-yaojiale02@163.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028050722.135598-1-yaojiale02@163.com>
The NIC capability parser checks that each declared payload fits in the
skb, but it does not ensure that the payload is large enough for the
selected capability. A truncated firmware response can therefore make
the driver read beyond the current TLV while copying fixed-size fields or
parsing capability structures.
Validate every consumed payload before accessing it and reject the
response when a known capability is shorter than its fixed data.
Fixes: dab35009fc1c ("wifi: mt76: mt7921: move connac nic capability handling to mt7921")
