cfg80211: Check if PMKID attribute is of expected size

2017-11-02T06:16:30+00:00

commit 9361df14d1cbf966409d5d6f48bb334384fbe138 upstream.

nla policy checks for only maximum length of the attribute data
when the attribute type is NLA_BINARY. If userspace sends less
data than specified, the wireless drivers may access illegal
memory. When type is NLA_UNSPEC, nla policy check ensures that
userspace sends minimum specified length number of bytes.

Remove type assignment to NLA_BINARY from nla_policy of
NL80211_ATTR_PMKID to make this NLA_UNSPEC and to make sure minimum
WLAN_PMKID_LEN bytes are received from userspace with
NL80211_ATTR_PMKID.

cfg80211: Validate frequencies nested in NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES

2017-11-02T06:16:30+00:00

commit d7f13f7450369281a5d0ea463cc69890a15923ae upstream.

validate_scan_freqs() retrieves frequencies from attributes
nested in the attribute NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES with
nla_get_u32(), which reads 4 bytes from each attribute
without validating the size of data received. Attributes
nested in NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES don't have an nla policy.

Validate size of each attribute before parsing to avoid potential buffer
overread.

nl80211: check for the required netlink attributes presence

2017-11-01T21:12:42+00:00

commit e785fa0a164aa11001cba931367c7f94ffaff888 upstream.

nl80211_set_rekey_data() does not check if the required attributes
NL80211_REKEY_DATA_{REPLAY_CTR,KEK,KCK} are present when processing
NL80211_CMD_SET_REKEY_OFFLOAD request. This request can be issued by
users with CAP_NET_ADMIN privilege and may result in NULL dereference
and a system crash. Add a check for the required attributes presence.
This patch is based on the patch by bo Zhang.

This fixes CVE-2017-12153.

cfg80211: limit scan results cache size

2017-02-10T10:03:56+00:00

commit 9853a55ef1bb66d7411136046060bbfb69c714fa upstream.

It's possible to make scanning consume almost arbitrary amounts
of memory, e.g. by sending beacon frames with random BSSIDs at
high rates while somebody is scanning.

Limit the number of BSS table entries we're willing to cache to
1000, limiting maximum memory usage to maybe 4-5MB, but lower
in practice - that would be the case for having both full-sized
beacon and probe response frames for each entry; this seems not
possible in practice, so a limit of 1000 entries will likely be
closer to 0.5 MB.

nl80211: check netlink protocol in socket release notification

2016-06-07T08:42:51+00:00

commit 8f815cdde3e550e10c2736990d791f60c2ce43eb upstream.

A non-privileged user can create a netlink socket with the same port_id as
used by an existing open nl80211 netlink socket (e.g. as used by a hostapd
process) with a different protocol number.

Closing this socket will then lead to the notification going to nl80211's
socket release notification handler, and possibly cause an action such as
removing a virtual interface.

Fix this issue by checking that the netlink protocol is NETLINK_GENERIC.
Since generic netlink has no notifier chain of its own, we can't fix the
problem more generically.

wext: fix message delay/ordering

2016-03-16T15:41:36+00:00

commit 8bf862739a7786ae72409220914df960a0aa80d8 upstream.

Beniamino reported that he was getting an RTM_NEWLINK message for a
given interface, after the RTM_DELLINK for it. It turns out that the
message is a wireless extensions message, which was sent because the
interface had been connected and disconnection while it was deleted
caused a wext message.

For its netlink messages, wext uses RTM_NEWLINK, but the message is
without all the regular rtnetlink attributes, so "ip monitor link"
prints just rudimentary information:

5: wlan1:  mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default
    link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Deleted 5: wlan1:  mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default
    link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
5: wlan1: 
    link/ether
(from my hwsim reproduction)

This can cause userspace to get confused since it doesn't expect an
RTM_NEWLINK message after RTM_DELLINK.

The reason for this is that wext schedules a worker to send out the
messages, and the scheduling delay can cause the messages to get out
to userspace in different order.

To fix this, have wext register a netdevice notifier and flush out
any pending messages when netdevice state changes. This fixes any
ordering whenever the original message wasn't sent by a notifier
itself.

cfg80211: wext: clear sinfo struct before calling driver

2015-06-22T23:55:54+00:00

commit 9c5a18a31b321f120efda412281bb9f610f84aa0 upstream.

Until recently, mac80211 overwrote all the statistics it could
provide when getting called, but it now relies on the struct
having been zeroed by the caller. This was always the case in
nl80211, but wext used a static struct which could even cause
values from one device leak to another.

Using a static struct is OK (as even documented in a comment)
since the whole usage of this function and its return value is
always locked under RTNL. Not clearing the struct for calling
the driver has always been wrong though, since drivers were
free to only fill values they could report, so calling this
for one device and then for another would always have leaked
values from one to the other.

Fix this by initializing the structure in question before the
driver method call.

nl80211: ignore HT/VHT capabilities without QoS/WMM

2015-04-13T12:02:11+00:00

commit 496fcc294daab18799e190c0264863d653588d1f upstream.

As HT/VHT depend heavily on QoS/WMM, it's not a good idea to
let userspace add clients that have HT/VHT but not QoS/WMM.
Since it does so in certain cases we've observed (client is
using HT IEs but not QoS/WMM) just ignore the HT/VHT info at
this point and don't pass it down to the drivers which might
unconditionally use it.

nl80211: fix per-station group key get/del and memory leak

2015-02-06T06:35:36+00:00

commit 0fa7b39131576dd1baa6ca17fca53c65d7f62249 upstream.

In case userspace attempts to obtain key information for or delete a
unicast key, this is currently erroneously rejected unless the driver
sets the WIPHY_FLAG_IBSS_RSN flag. Apparently enough drivers do so it
was never noticed.

Fix that, and while at it fix a potential memory leak: the error path
in the get_key() function was placed after allocating a message but
didn't free it - move it to a better place. Luckily admin permissions
are needed to call this operation.

cfg80211: Fix 160 MHz channels with 80+80 and 160 MHz drivers

2015-01-27T15:52:31+00:00

commit 08f6f147773b23b765b94633a8eaa82e7defcf4c upstream.

The VHT supported channel width field is a two bit integer, not a
bitfield. cfg80211_chandef_usable() was interpreting it incorrectly and
ended up rejecting 160 MHz channel width if the driver indicated support
for both 160 and 80+80 MHz channels.

Fixes: 3d9d1d6656a73 ("nl80211/cfg80211: support VHT channel configuration")
       (however, no real drivers had 160 MHz support it until 3.16)
