Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: ath9k: add range check for conn_rsp_epid in htc_connect_service()<br />
<br />
I found the following bug in my fuzzer:<br />
<br />
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_hst.c:26:51<br />
index 255 is out of range for type &#39;htc_endpoint [22]&#39;<br />
CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 8 Comm: kworker/0:0 Not tainted 6.11.0-rc6-dirty #14<br />
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014<br />
Workqueue: events request_firmware_work_func<br />
Call Trace:<br />
<br />
dump_stack_lvl+0x180/0x1b0<br />
__ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds+0xd4/0x130<br />
htc_issue_send.constprop.0+0x20c/0x230<br />
? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x3c/0x70<br />
ath9k_wmi_cmd+0x41d/0x610<br />
? mark_held_locks+0x9f/0xe0<br />
...<br />
<br />
Since this bug has been confirmed to be caused by insufficient verification<br />
of conn_rsp_epid, I think it would be appropriate to add a range check for<br />
conn_rsp_epid to htc_connect_service() to prevent the bug from occurring.
