NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-64kb-devel package and not the kernel-64kb-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: ath12k: fix possible out-of-bound read in ath12k_htt_pull_ppdu_stats()

len is extracted from HTT message and could be an unexpected value in case errors happen, so add validation before using to avoid possible out-of-bound read in the following message iteration and parsing.

The same issue also applies to ppdu_info->ppdu_stats.common.num_users, so validate it before using too.

These are found during code review.

Compile test only.
