[ 23/66] mac80211: check management frame header length

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Nov 14 2012 - 23:37:20 EST


3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 4a4f1a5808c8bb0b72a4f6e5904c53fb8c9cd966 upstream.

Due to pskb_may_pull() checking the skb length, all
non-management frames are checked on input whether
their 802.11 header is fully present. Also add that
check for management frames and remove a check that
is now duplicate. This prevents accessing skb data
beyond the frame end.
