commit 75cf067953d5ee543b3bda90bbfcbee5e1f94ae8 upstream.

Add missing endianness conversion when using the USB device-descriptor
bcdDevice field to construct a firmware file name.

commit ebeb36670ecac36c179b5fb5d5c88ff03ba191ec upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer or accessing memory beyond the endpoint array should a
malicious device lack the expected endpoints.

<title>mwifiex: pcie: fix cmd_buf use-after-free in remove/reset</title>

commit 3c8cb9ad032d737b874e402c59eb51e3c991a144 upstream.

Command buffers (skb's) are allocated by the main driver, and freed upon
the last use. That last use is often in mwifiex_free_cmd_buffer(). In
the meantime, if the command buffer gets used by the PCI driver, we map
it as DMA-able, and store the mapping information in the 'cb' memory.

However, if a command was in-flight when resetting the device (and
therefore was still mapped), we don't get a chance to unmap this memory
until after the core has cleaned up its command handling.

Let's keep a refcount within the PCI driver, so we ensure the memory
only gets freed after we've finished unmapping it.

Noticed by KASAN when forcing a reset via:

  echo 1 &gt; /sys/bus/pci/.../reset

The same code path can presumably be exercised in remove() and
shutdown().

This bug has been around in different forms for a while. It was sort of
noticed in commit 955ab095c51a ("mwifiex: Do not kfree cmd buf while
unregistering PCIe"), but it just fixed the double-free, without
acknowledging the potential for use-after-free.

This bug has been around in different forms for a while. It was sort of
noticed in commit 955ab095c51a ("mwifiex: Do not kfree cmd buf while
unregistering PCIe"), but it just fixed the double-free, without
acknowledging the potential for use-after-free.

<title>cdc_ncm: do not call usbnet_link_change from cdc_ncm_bind</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 4d06dd537f95683aba3651098ae288b7cbff8274 upstream.

usbnet_link_change will call schedule_work and should be
avoided if bind is failing. Otherwise we will end up with
scheduled work referring to a netdev which has gone away.

Instead of making the call conditional, we can just defer
it to usbnet_probe, using the driver_info flag made for
this purpose.

commit 205e1e255c479f3fd77446415706463b282f94e4 upstream.

Matt reported that we have a NULL pointer dereference
in ppp_pernet() from ppp_connect_channel(),
i.e. pch-&gt;chan_net is NULL.

This is due to that a parallel ppp_unregister_channel()
could happen while we are in ppp_connect_channel(), during
which pch-&gt;chan_net set to NULL. Since we need a reference
to net per channel, it makes sense to sync the refcnt
with the life time of the channel, therefore we should
release this reference when we destroy it.

<title>brcmfmac: Make skb header writable before use</title>

commit 9cc4b7cb86cbcc6330a3faa8cd65268cd2d3c227 upstream.

The driver was making changes to the skb_header without
ensuring it was writable (i.e. uncloned).
This patch also removes some boiler plate header size
checking/adjustment code as that is also handled by the
skb_cow_header function used to make header writable.

commit 455a1eb4654c24560eb9dfc634f29cba3d87601e upstream.

The incoming skb header may be resized if header space is
insufficient, which might change the data adddress in the skb.
Ensure that a cached pointer to that data is correctly set by
moving assignment to after any possible changes.

<title>mwifiex: Avoid skipping WEP key deletion for AP</title>

commit a5b60de6972decc6b50a39abb376077c3c3621c8 upstream.

This patch fixes the issue specific to AP. AP is started with WEP
security and external station is connected to it. Data path works
in this case. Now if AP is restarted with WPA/WPA2 security,
station is able to connect but ping fails.

Driver skips the deletion of WEP keys if interface type is AP.
Removing that redundant check resolves the issue.

<title>mwifiex: debugfs: Fix (sometimes) off-by-1 SSID print</title>

commit 6183468a23fc6b6903f8597982017ad2c7fdefcf upstream.

Similar to commit fcd2042e8d36 ("mwifiex: printk() overflow with 32-byte
SSIDs"), we failed to account for the existence of 32-char SSIDs in our
debugfs code. Unlike in that case though, we zeroed out the containing
struct first, and I'm pretty sure we're guaranteed to have some padding
after the 'ssid.ssid' and 'ssid.ssid_len' fields (the struct is 33 bytes
long).

So, this is the difference between:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
  ...
  essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef "
  ...

and the correct output:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/info
  ...
  essid="0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
  ...

commit 30544af5483755b11bb5924736e9e0b45ef0644a upstream.

We were using s64 for lat_ns (latency nano-second value) since in
our calculations a negative value could be a resultant.  For negative
values, we then assign lat_ns to be zero, so the value passed to
do_div() was never negative, but do_div() expects the argument type
to be u64, so do a cast to resolve a compile warning seen on
PowerPC.
