Hi Linux stable team, ath10k has a replay detection problem which was fixed in v4.14. I would like to get the fix also to linux-stable-4.9.y but for that it depends on a small mac80211 patch. So then cherrypicking the fixes please take the mac80211 commit first: cef0acd4d7d4 mac80211: Add RX flag to indicate ICV stripped 7eccb738fce5 ath10k: rebuild crypto header in rx data frames I tested and in this order commits apply just fine to linux-4.9.y. The ath10k patch is largish but as this fixes a security issue I hope it still can be applied to linux-stable. Please let me know if there are any problems. This is the commit log describing the problem: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ath10k: rebuild crypto header in rx data frames Rx data frames notified through HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_IND and HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_RX_FRAG_IND expect PN/TSC check to be done on host (mac80211) rather than firmware. Rebuild cipher header in every received data frames (that are notified through those HTT interfaces) from the rx_hdr_status tlv available in the rx descriptor of the first msdu. Skip setting RX_FLAG_IV_STRIPPED flag for the packets which requires mac80211 PN/TSC check support and set appropriate RX_FLAG for stripped crypto tail. Hw QCA988X, QCA9887, QCA99X0, QCA9984, QCA9888 and QCA4019 currently need the rebuilding of cipher header to perform PN/TSC check for replay attack. Please note that removing crypto tail for CCMP-256, GCMP and GCMP-256 ciphers in raw mode needs to be fixed. Since Rx with these ciphers in raw mode does not work in the current form even without this patch and removing crypto tail for these chipers needs clean up, raw mode related issues in CCMP-256, GCMP and GCMP-256 can be addressed in follow up patches.
