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

wifi: carl9170: fix OOB read from off-by-two in TX status handler

The bounds check in carl9170_tx_process_status() uses i &gt; ((cmd-&gt;hdr.len / 2) + 1) which is off by two, allowing 2 extra iterations past valid _tx_status entries when the firmware- controlled hdr.ext exceeds hdr.len/2. Fix by using the correct comparison i &gt;= (cmd-&gt;hdr.len / 2).
