Currently, these three get_key functions return -1 when the provided len value is less a specific key length value, which can result in buffer overflow depending on how the returned value is used. These functions are used in three places in ieee80211/ieee80211_wx.c: ieee80211_wx_get_encode() : The behavior of this function will be unchanged. ieee80211_wx_get_encode_ext() : The result of the get_key function is written to ext->key_len, resulting in a buffer overflow if the result is negative. ieee80211_wx_set_encode() : The behavior of this function will change. When len is less than the key length value, it will set a default key of all 0.
