[PATCH] cfg80211: check S1G beacon compat element length

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

We need to check the length of this element so that we don't
access data beyond its end. Fix that.

Fixes: 9eaffe5078ca ("cfg80211: convert S1G beacon to scan results")
