<title>mac80211: don't send SMPS action frame in AP mode when not needed</title>

commit b3dd8279659f14f3624bb32559782d699fa6f7d1 upstream.

mac80211 allows to modify the SMPS state of an AP both,
when it is started, and after it has been started. Such a
change will trigger an action frame to all the peers that
are currently connected, and will be remembered so that
new peers will get notified as soon as they connect (since
the SMPS setting in the beacon may not be the right one).

This means that we need to remember the SMPS state
currently requested as well as the SMPS state that was
configured initially (and advertised in the beacon).
The former is bss-&gt;req_smps and the latter is
sdata-&gt;smps_mode.

Initially, the AP interface could only be started with
SMPS_OFF, which means that sdata-&gt;smps_mode was SMPS_OFF
always. Later, a nl80211 API was added to be able to start
an AP with a different AP mode. That code forgot to update
bss-&gt;req_smps and because of that, if the AP interface was
started with SMPS_DYNAMIC, we had:
   sdata-&gt;smps_mode = SMPS_DYNAMIC
   bss-&gt;req_smps = SMPS_OFF

That configuration made mac80211 think it needs to fire off
an action frame to any new station connecting to the AP in
order to let it know that the actual SMPS configuration is
SMPS_OFF.

Fix that by properly setting bss-&gt;req_smps in
ieee80211_start_ap.

commit e165bc02a02c70e40d5c811c705ba269aeca0497 upstream.

In the commit enabling per-CPU station statistics, I inadvertedly
copy-pasted some code to update rx_packets and forgot to change it
to update rx_dropped_misc. Fix that.

This addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195953.

commit 5667c86acf021e6dcf02584408b4484a273ac68f upstream.

Mesh forwarding path checks for address extension mode to fetch
appropriate proxied address and MPP address. Existing condition
that looks for 6 address format is not strict enough so that
frames with improper values are processed and invalid entries
are added into MPP table. Fix that by adding a stricter check before
processing the packet.

Per IEEE Std 802.11s-2011 spec. Table 7-6g1 lists address extension
mode 0x3 as reserved one. And also Table Table 9-13 does not specify
0x3 as valid address field.

commit f1f3e9e2a50a70de908f9dfe0d870e9cdc67e042 upstream.

When VHT IBSS support was added, the size of the extra elements
wasn't considered in ieee80211_ibss_build_presp(), which makes
it possible that it would overrun the allocated buffer. Fix it
by allocating the necessary space.

commit 0328edc77d4f35014b35f32b46be0a7e16aae74f upstream.

When adding per-CPU statistics, which added statistics back
to mac80211 for the fast-RX path, I evidently forgot to add
the "stats-&gt;packets++" line. The reason for that is likely
that I didn't see it since it's done in defragmentation for
the regular RX path.

Add the missing line to properly count received packets in
the fast-RX case.

commit 9e478066eae41211c92a8f63cc69aafc391bd6ab upstream.

There are two bugs in the follow-MAC code:
 * it treats the radiotap header as the 802.11 header
   (therefore it can't possibly work)
 * it doesn't verify that the skb data it accesses is actually
   present in the header, which is mitigated by the first point

Fix this by moving all of this out into a separate function.
This function copies the data it needs using skb_copy_bits()
to make sure it can be accessed if it's paged, and offsets
that by the possibly present vendor radiotap header.

This also makes all those conditions more readable.

commit 3018e947d7fd536d57e2b550c33e456d921fff8c upstream.

AP/AP_VLAN modes don't accept any real 802.11 multicast data
frames, but since they do need to accept broadcast management
frames the same is currently permitted for data frames. This
opens a security problem because such frames would be decrypted
with the GTK, and could even contain unicast L3 frames.

Since the spec says that ToDS frames must always have the BSSID
as the RA (addr1), reject any other data frames.

The problem was originally reported in "Predicting, Decrypting,
and Abusing WPA2/802.11 Group Keys" at usenix
https://www.usenix.org/conference/usenixsecurity16/technical-sessions/presentation/vanhoef
and brought to my attention by Jouni.

commit 3018e947d7fd536d57e2b550c33e456d921fff8c upstream.

AP/AP_VLAN modes don't accept any real 802.11 multicast data
frames, but since they do need to accept broadcast management
frames the same is currently permitted for data frames. This
opens a security problem because such frames would be decrypted
with the GTK, and could even contain unicast L3 frames.

Since the spec says that ToDS frames must always have the BSSID
as the RA (addr1), reject any other data frames.

The problem was originally reported in "Predicting, Decrypting,
and Abusing WPA2/802.11 Group Keys" at usenix
https://www.usenix.org/conference/usenixsecurity16/technical-sessions/presentation/vanhoef
and brought to my attention by Jouni.
