[PATCH 5.2 127/143] mac80211: Dont memset RXCB prior to PAE intercept

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

 



From: Denis Kenzior <denkenz@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c8a41c6afa27b8c3f61622dfd882b912da9d6721 upstream.

In ieee80211_deliver_skb_to_local_stack intercepts EAPoL frames if
mac80211 is configured to do so and forwards the contents over nl80211.
During this process some additional data is also forwarded, including
whether the frame was received encrypted or not.  Unfortunately just
prior to the call to ieee80211_deliver_skb_to_local_stack, skb->cb is
cleared, resulting in incorrect data being exposed over nl80211.

Fixes: 018f6fbf540d ("mac80211: Send control port frames over nl80211")
