Description SMASH SMASH 2024-05-23 08:02:12 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: ath12k: fix possible out-of-bound read in ath12k_htt_pull_ppdu_stats()

len is extracted from HTT message and could be an unexpected value in
case errors happen, so add validation before using to avoid possible
out-of-bound read in the following message iteration and parsing.

The same issue also applies to ppdu_info->ppdu_stats.common.num_users,
so validate it before using too.

These are found during code review.

Compile test only.

Comment 2 Takashi Iwai 2024-05-24 07:24:45 UTC 
SLE15-SP5 and older branches don't contain ath12 driver at all, so unaffected.
Reassigned back.
Comment 3 Andrea Mattiazzo 2024-05-24 10:39:12 UTC 
All done, closing.
