[ Upstream commit 13ec7f10b8 ]
mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie() calls memcpy() unconditionally in
a couple places without checking the destination size. Since the
source is given from user-space, this may trigger a heap buffer
overflow.
Fix it by putting the length check before performing memcpy().
This fix addresses CVE-2019-3846.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
