[PATCH 4.19 067/273] wifi: mwifiex: avoid possible NULL skb pointer dereference

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

 



4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dmitry Antipov <dmantipov@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 35a7a1ce7c7d61664ee54f5239a1f120ab95a87e ]

In 'mwifiex_handle_uap_rx_forward()', always check the value
returned by 'skb_copy()' to avoid potential NULL pointer
dereference in 'mwifiex_uap_queue_bridged_pkt()', and drop
original skb in case of copying failure.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: 838e4f449297 ("mwifiex: improve uAP RX handling")
