[PATCH 14/16] iwlwifi: mvm: fix possible out-of-bounds read when accessing lq_info

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

 



From: Gregory Greenman <gregory.greenman@xxxxxxxxx>

lq_info is an arary of size 2, active_tbl index is u8.
When accessing lq_info[1 - active_tbl], theoretically it's possible
that the access will be made to a negative index value.
