Inside rtw_wep_decrypt(), length is computed as:\n\n    length = len - WLAN_HDR_A3_LEN - iv_len\n\nand then passed as (length - 4) to crc32_le().  If len is less than\nWLAN_HDR_A3_LEN + iv_len + icv_len (32 bytes), length - 4 is negative\nand, after the implicit cast to size_t, causes crc32_le() to read far\nbeyond the frame buffer.  Add a minimum length check before accessing\nthe IV field and calling the decryption path.\n\nWhen processing a seq=3 response, rtw_get_ie() stores the Challenge\nText IE length in ie_len, but the subsequent memcmp() always reads 128\nbytes regardless of ie_len.  IEEE 802.11 mandates a challenge text of\nexactly 128 bytes; reject any IE whose length field differs, matching\nthe check already applied to OnAuthClient().","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-07-25T08:51:16.67+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T20:38:29.983+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
