[PATCH] nl80211: fix nlmsg allocation in cfg80211_ft_event

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

 



From: Dedy Lansky <dlansky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Allocation size of nlmsg in cfg80211_ft_event is based on ric_ies_len
and doesn't take into account ies_len. This leads to
NL80211_CMD_FT_EVENT message construction failure in case ft_event
contains large enough ies buffer.
Add ies_len to the nlmsg allocation size.
