Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtw89: Fix array index mistake in rtw89_sta_info_get_iter() In rtw89_sta_info_get_iter() &#39;status->he_gi&#39; is compared to array size. But then &#39;rate->he_gi&#39; is used as array index instead of &#39;status->he_gi&#39;. This can lead to go beyond array boundaries in case of &#39;rate->he_gi&#39; is not equal to &#39;status->he_gi&#39; and is bigger than array size. Looks like "copy-paste" mistake. Fix this mistake by replacing &#39;rate->he_gi&#39; with &#39;status->he_gi&#39;. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
