Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB access from firmware ADDBA window size
aggr_recv_addba_req_evt() logs a debug message when the firmware-supplied
win_sz is outside [AGGR_WIN_SZ_MIN, AGGR_WIN_SZ_MAX] but does not
return. The out-of-range win_sz is then used in TID_WINDOW_SZ() to
compute a kzalloc size and stored in rxtid->hold_q_sz, leading to
zero-size or overflowed allocations and subsequent out-of-bounds access.
Clean up any previously active aggregation session for the TID first,
then return early when win_sz is out of the valid range, instead of
proceeding with a broken allocation size.
