[PATCH 01/18] mac80211: assure all fragments are encrypted

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

 



From: Mathy Vanhoef <Mathy.Vanhoef@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Do not mix plaintext and encrypted fragments in protected Wi-Fi
networks. This fixes CVE-2020-26147.

Previously, an attacker was able to first forward a legitimate encrypted
fragment towards a victim, followed by a plaintext fragment. The
encrypted and plaintext fragment would then be reassembled. For further
details see Section 6.3 and Appendix D in the paper "Fragment and Forge:
Breaking Wi-Fi Through Frame Aggregation and Fragmentation".

Because of this change there are now two equivalent conditions in the
code to determine if a received fragment requires sequential PNs, so we
also move this test to a separate function to make the code easier to
maintain.
