This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled wifi: ieee80211: fix ieee80211_mle_basic_sta_prof_size_ok() to the 6.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: wifi-ieee80211-fix-ieee80211_mle_basic_sta_prof_size.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 94c3a49b117399e3d3c590d544103fc34ef7b834 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 18 18:53:18 2024 +0200 wifi: ieee80211: fix ieee80211_mle_basic_sta_prof_size_ok() [ Upstream commit c121514df0daa800cc500dc2738e0b8a1c54af98 ] If there was a possibility of an MLE basic STA profile without subelements, we might reject it because we account for the one octet for sta_info_len twice (it's part of itself, and in the fixed portion). Like in ieee80211_mle_reconf_sta_prof_size_ok, subtract 1 to adjust that. When reading the elements we did take this into account, and since there are always elements, this never really mattered.
