[PATCH wireless 2/2] wifi: mac80211: fix potential null pointer dereference

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

 



rx->sta->amsdu_mesh_control is being passed to ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s
without checking rx->sta. Since it doesn't make sense to accept A-MSDU
packets without a sta, simply add a check earlier.

Fixes: 6e4c0d0460bd ("wifi: mac80211: add a workaround for receiving non-standard mesh A-MSDU")
