Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: cfg80211: fix out-of-bounds access during multi-link element defragmentation<br />
<br />
Currently during the multi-link element defragmentation process, the<br />
multi-link element length added to the total IEs length when calculating<br />
the length of remaining IEs after the multi-link element in<br />
cfg80211_defrag_mle(). This could lead to out-of-bounds access if the<br />
multi-link element or its corresponding fragment elements are the last<br />
elements in the IEs buffer.<br />
<br />
To address this issue, correctly calculate the remaining IEs length by<br />
deducting the multi-link element end offset from total IEs end offset.
