For each\nsubframe it passes the subframe data pointer to\nmwifiex_process_tdls_action_frame(), but pairs it with skb->len, the\nlength of the A-MSDU parent, instead of rx_skb->len:\n\n\trx_skb = __skb_dequeue(&list);\n\trx_hdr = (struct rx_packet_hdr *)rx_skb->data;\n\tif (ISSUPP_TDLS_ENABLED(priv->adapter->fw_cap_info) &&\n\t    ntohs(rx_hdr->eth803_hdr.h_proto) == ETH_P_TDLS) {\n\t\tmwifiex_process_tdls_action_frame(priv, (u8 *)rx_hdr,\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  skb->len);\n\t}\n\nThe parent is not a valid description of that buffer, and may not be\nvalid memory at all. ieee80211_amsdu_to_8023s() ends with\n\n\tif (!reuse_skb)\n\t\tdev_kfree_skb(skb);\n\nand it only sets reuse_skb when the parent is linear, is not a\nhead_frag, and is being consumed as the *last* subframe. So when the\nparent does not qualify for reuse it has already been freed, and the\nread of skb->len is a use-after-free. When it is reused, skb->len is\nthe length of the last subframe, applied to every earlier subframe,\nwhich over-states the buffer whenever an earlier subframe is shorter.\n\nThe callee cannot absorb a wrong length, because it derives its own\nceiling from the value it is given. Each frame type computes\n\n\ties_len = len - sizeof(struct ethhdr) - TDLS_*_FIX_LEN;\n\nand the element walk is then bounded entirely against that ceiling,\n\n\tfor (end = pos + ies_len; pos + 1 < end; pos += 2 + pos[1]) {\n\t\tu8 ie_len = pos[1];\n\n\t\tif (pos + 2 + ie_len > end)\n\t\t\tbreak;\n\nso a too-large len moves end past the end of the subframe and the walk\nreads and copies beyond it. The A-MSDU layout is chosen by the sender,\nwhich makes the difference between the last subframe and a shorter\nearlier one remotely selectable. Reaching this requires TDLS support in\nfirmware and the TDLS ethertype on the subframe.\n\nThe other caller, mwifiex_process_rx_packet(), is correct: it passes a\npointer and a length that describe the same region of the RX buffer.\n\nPass rx_skb->len, the length of the subframe actually being parsed.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-15T12:27:18.867+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-16T19:05:49.47+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
