[PATCH 3/3] mac80211: validate DA/SA during A-MSDU decapsulation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

As pointed out by Michael Braun, we don't check inner L2 addresses
during A-MSDU decapsulation, leading to the possibility that, for
example, a station associated to an AP sends frames as though they
came from somewhere else.

Fix this problem by letting cfg80211 validate the addresses, as
indicated by passing in the ones that need to be validated.
