| Subject: CVE-2023-52829: wifi: ath12k: fix possible out-of-bound write in ath12k_wmi_ext_hal_reg_caps() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| wifi: ath12k: fix possible out-of-bound write in ath12k_wmi_ext_hal_reg_caps() |
| |
| reg_cap.phy_id is extracted from WMI event and could be an unexpected value |
| in case some errors happen. As a result out-of-bound write may occur to |
| soc->hal_reg_cap. Fix it by validating reg_cap.phy_id before using it. |
| |
| This is found during code review. |
| |
| Compile tested only. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52829 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
| https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/dfe13eaab043130f90dd3d57c7d88577c04adc97 |
