commit 737bb912eb upstream.
This patch is a mitigation to prevent the A-MSDU spoofing vulnerability
for mesh networks. The initial update to the IEEE 802.11 standard, in
response to the FragAttacks, missed this case (CVE-2025-27558). It can
be considered a variant of CVE-2020-24588 but for mesh networks.
This patch tries to detect if a standard MSDU was turned into an A-MSDU
by an adversary. This is done by parsing a received A-MSDU as a standard
MSDU, calculating the length of the Mesh Control header, and seeing if
the 6 bytes after this header equal the start of an rfc1042 header. If
equal, this is a strong indication of an ongoing attack attempt.
This defense was tested with mac80211_hwsim against a mesh network that
uses an empty Mesh Address Extension field, i.e., when four addresses
are used, and when using a 12-byte Mesh Address Extension field, i.e.,
when six addresses are used. Functionality of normal MSDUs and A-MSDUs
was also tested, and confirmed working, when using both an empty and
12-byte Mesh Address Extension field.
It was also tested with mac80211_hwsim that A-MSDU attacks in non-mesh
networks keep being detected and prevented.
Note that the vulnerability being patched, and the defense being
implemented, was also discussed in the following paper and in the
following IEEE 802.11 presentation:

[ Upstream commit 1e1f706fc2 ]
S1G beacons are not traditional beacons but a type of extension frame.
Extension frames contain the frame control and duration fields, followed
by zero or more optional fields before the frame body. These optional
fields are distinct from the variable length elements.
The presence of optional fields is indicated in the frame control field.
To correctly locate the elements offset, the frame control must be parsed
to identify which optional fields are present. Currently, mac80211 parses
S1G beacons based on fixed assumptions about the frame layout, without
inspecting the frame control field. This can result in incorrect offsets
to the "variable" portion of the frame.
Properly parse S1G beacon frames by using the field lengths defined in
IEEE 802.11-2024, section 9.3.4.3, ensuring that the elements offset is
calculated accurately.

commit 023c1f2f06 upstream.
Currently during the multi-link element defragmentation process, the
multi-link element length added to the total IEs length when calculating
the length of remaining IEs after the multi-link element in
cfg80211_defrag_mle(). This could lead to out-of-bounds access if the
multi-link element or its corresponding fragment elements are the last
elements in the IEs buffer.
To address this issue, correctly calculate the remaining IEs length by
deducting the multi-link element end offset from total IEs end offset.

commit 59b348be75 upstream.
Syzbot keeps reporting an issue [1] that occurs when erroneous symbols
sent from userspace get through into user_alpha2[] via
regulatory_hint_user() call. Such invalid regulatory hints should be
rejected.
While a sanity check from commit 47caf685a6 ("cfg80211: regulatory:
reject invalid hints") looks to be enough to deter these very cases,
there is a way to get around it due to 2 reasons.
1) The way isalpha() works, symbols other than latin lower and
upper letters may be used to determine a country/domain.
For instance, greek letters will also be considered upper/lower
letters and for such characters isalpha() will return true as well.
However, ISO-3166-1 alpha2 codes should only hold latin
characters.
2) While processing a user regulatory request, between
reg_process_hint_user() and regulatory_hint_user() there happens to
be a call to queue_regulatory_request() which modifies letters in
request->alpha2[] with toupper(). This works fine for latin symbols,
less so for weird letter characters from the second part of _ctype[].
Syzbot triggers a warning in is_user_regdom_saved() by first sending
over an unexpected non-latin letter that gets malformed by toupper()
into a character that ends up failing isalpha() check.
Prevent this by enhancing is_an_alpha2() to ensure that incoming
symbols are latin letters and nothing else.

[ Upstream commit b5c32ff6a3 ]
Currently, during link deletion, the link ID is first removed from the
valid_links bitmap before performing any clean-up operations. However, some
functions require the link ID to remain in the valid_links bitmap. One
such example is cfg80211_cac_event(). The flow is -
nl80211_remove_link()
cfg80211_remove_link()
ieee80211_del_intf_link()
ieee80211_vif_set_links()
ieee80211_vif_update_links()
ieee80211_link_stop()
cfg80211_cac_event()
cfg80211_cac_event() requires link ID to be present but it is cleared
already in cfg80211_remove_link(). Ultimately, WARN_ON() is hit.
Therefore, clear the link ID from the bitmap only after completing the link
clean-up.

[ Upstream commit b4ebb58cb9 ]
Currently, when the driver attempts to connect to an AP MLD with multiple
APs, the cfg80211_mlme_check_mlo_compat() function requires the Medium
Synchronization Delay values from different APs of the same AP MLD to be
equal, which may result in connection failures.
This is because when the driver receives a multi-link probe response from
an AP MLD with multiple APs, cfg80211 updates the Elements for each AP
based on the multi-link probe response. If the Medium Synchronization Delay
is set in the multi-link probe response, the Elements for each AP belonging
to the same AP MLD will have the Medium Synchronization Delay set
simultaneously. If non-multi-link probe responses are received from
different APs of the same MLD AP, cfg80211 will still update the Elements
based on the non-multi-link probe response. Since the non-multi-link probe
response does not set the Medium Synchronization Delay
(IEEE 802.11be-2024-35.3.4.4), if the Elements from a non-multi-link probe
response overwrite those from a multi-link probe response that has set the
Medium Synchronization Delay, the Medium Synchronization Delay values for
APs belonging to the same AP MLD will not be equal. This discrepancy causes
the cfg80211_mlme_check_mlo_compat() function to fail, leading to
connection failures. Commit ccb964b4ab
("wifi: cfg80211: validate MLO connections better") did not take this into
account.
To address this issue, remove this validity check.

Currently, wiphy_verify_combinations() fails for the multi-radio per wiphy
due to the condition check on new global interface combination that DFS
only works on one channel. In a multi-radio scenario, new global interface
combination encompasses the capabilities of all radio combinations, so it
supports more than one channel with DFS. For multi-radio per wiphy,
interface combination verification needs to be performed for radio specific
interface combinations. This is necessary as the new global interface
combination combines the capabilities of all radio combinations.

wireless fixes for v6.12-rc5
The first set of wireless fixes for v6.12. We have been busy and have
not been able to send this earlier, so there are more fixes than
usual. The fixes are all over, both in stack and in drivers, but
nothing special really standing out.
Currently, in cfg80211_parse_ml_elem_sta_data(), when RNR element
indicates a BSS that operates in a channel that current regulatory
domain doesn't support, a NULL value is returned by
ieee80211_get_channel_khz() and assigned to this BSS entry's channel
field. Later in cfg80211_inform_single_bss_data(), the reported
BSS entry's channel will be wrongly overridden by transmitted BSS's.
This could result in connection failure that when wpa_supplicant
tries to select this reported BSS entry while it actually resides in
an unsupported channel.
Since this channel is not supported, it is reasonable to skip such
entries instead of reporting wrong information.

it can no longer derive the event class from wiphy_netdev_evt.

The prerequisite for MLO support in cfg80211/mac80211 is that all the links
participating in MLO must be from the same wiphy/ieee80211_hw. To meet this
expectation, some drivers may need to group multiple discrete hardware each
acting as a link in MLO under single wiphy.
With this change, supported frequencies and interface combinations of each
individual radio are reported to user space. This allows user space to figure
out the limitations of what combination of channels can be used concurrently.
Even for non-MLO devices, this improves support for devices capable of
running on multiple channels at the same time.
