[PATCH 2.6.30!] mac80211: validate TIM IE length

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

 



The TIM IE must not be shorter than 4 bytes, so verify that
when parsing it and use the proper type. To ease that adjust
struct ieee80211_tim_ie to have a virtual bitmap of size
at least 1.

Also check that the TIM IE is actually present before trying
to parse it!

Because other people may need the function, make it a static
inline in ieee80211.h.

I can provide a shorter fix for 2.6.30 if required.

Kalle!!
