Subject[PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix global-out-of-bounds bug in _rtl8812ae_phy_set_txpower_limit()
Date
There is a global-out-of-bounds reported by KASAN:

The root cause of the problem is that the comparison order of
"prate_section" in _rtl8812ae_phy_set_txpower_limit() is wrong. The
_rtl8812ae_eq_n_byte() is used to compare the first n bytes of the two
strings, so this requires the length of the two strings be greater
than or equal to n. In the _rtl8812ae_phy_set_txpower_limit(), it was
originally intended to meet this requirement by carefully designing
the comparison order. For example, "pregulation" and "pbandwidth" are
compared in order of length from small to large, first is 3 and last
is 4. However, the comparison order of "prate_section" dose not obey
such order requirement, therefore when "prate_section" is "HT", it will
lead to access out of bounds in _rtl8812ae_eq_n_byte().

Fix it by adding a length check in _rtl8812ae_eq_n_byte(). Although it
can be fixed by adjusting the comparison order of "prate_section", this
may cause the value of "rate_section" to not be from 0 to 5. In
addition, commit "21e4b0726dc6" not only moved driver from staging to
regular tree, but also added setting txpower limit function during the
driver config phase, so the problem was introduced by this commit.
