Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in qcacld up to 2.0. This affects some unknown functionality. The manipulation of the argument QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_EXTSCAN_BSSID_HOTLIST_PARAMS_LOST_AP_SAMPLE_SIZE with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

While parsing Netlink attributes in QCA_WLAN_VENDOR_ATTR_EXTSCAN_BSSID_HOTLIST_PARAMS_LOST_AP_SAMPLE_SIZE in qcacld 2.0 before 2017-05-16, a buffer overread could occur.
