[PATCH 1/1] mwifiex: Fix possible buffer overflows in mwifiex_uap_bss_param_prepare

From: Xiaohui Zhang
Date: Tue Dec 08 2020 - 06:37:42 EST


From: Zhang Xiaohui <ruc_zhangxiaohui@xxxxxxx>

mwifiex_uap_bss_param_prepare() calls memcpy() without checking
the destination size may trigger a buffer overflower,
which a local user could use to cause denial of service or the
execution of arbitrary code.
Fix it by putting the length check before calling memcpy().
