[PATCH 4/4] wifi: wilc1000: validate number of channels

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

 



There is no validation of 'e->no_of_channels' which can trigger an
out-of-bounds write in the following 'memset' call. Validate that the
number of channels does not extends beyond the size of the channel list
element.
