[PATCH 4.14 78/95] nl80211: fix validation of mesh path nexthop

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

 



From: Markus Theil <markus.theil@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1fab1b89e2e8f01204a9c05a39fd0b6411a48593 upstream.

Mesh path nexthop should be a ethernet address, but current validation
checks against 4 byte integers.
