If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Srinivas Dasari commit 9361df14d1cbf966409d5d6f48bb334384fbe138 upstream. nla policy checks for only maximum length of the attribute data when the attribute type is NLA_BINARY. If userspace sends less data than specified, the wireless drivers may access illegal memory. When type is NLA_UNSPEC, nla policy check ensures that userspace sends minimum specified length number of bytes. Remove type assignment to NLA_BINARY from nla_policy of NL80211_ATTR_PMKID to make this NLA_UNSPEC and to make sure minimum WLAN_PMKID_LEN bytes are received from userspace with NL80211_ATTR_PMKID.
