Those bytes are not a routable IP payload; WiFi host-device range is Adjacent.\nAC:L - iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd() is RX_HANDLER_SYNC; a single TX_CMD whose firmware-chosen frame_count makes iwl_mvm_tx_resp_min_len() exceed iwl_rx_packet_payload_len() (or frame_count!=1 on the new TX API) is parsed immediately, with no race or victim state the sender cannot induce by posting that notification.\nPR:N - iwl_mvm_rx_common() only checks pkt_len against sizeof(struct iwl_tx_resp) then calls iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd() with no uid, capability, or 802.11 authentication check; TX_CMD is in no_reclaim_cmds as a ucode-originated notif. An RF-adjacent attacker needs no host account.\nUI:N - The NAPI path consumes TX_CMD automatically when firmware posts a TX completion while the interface is up; iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd() does not require the victim to mount, open a file, or take any extra action at trigger time.\nS:U - iwl_mvm_get_scd_ssn() and iwl_trans_reclaim() from iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd_single() operate on host iwlwifi RX pages and TX queues inside the same kernel authority; this is not a KVM/Xen escape or an IOMMU/DMA-boundary bypass.\nC:H - iwl_mvm_get_scd_ssn() does le32_to_cpup((__le32 *)agg_status + frame_count) with no payload check, and iwl_mvm_rx_tx_cmd_agg_dbg() walks status[frame_count] (u8, up to 255 entries). That is an out-of-bounds read past the TX_CMD into the RX page, and a poisoned SSN into iwl_trans_reclaim() is UAF-class.\nI:H - The over-read SCD SSN is passed to iwl_trans_reclaim()/iwl_pcie_reclaim(), which unmaps TFDs, NULLs txq->entries[].skb, and advances txq->read_ptr, completing in-flight TX buffers early. That is an out-of-bounds-fed free/write of live TX objects, not a bounded status update.\nA:H - iwl_pcie_reclaim() WARNs on a missing skb or cmd-queue txq_id, and an SSN whose last_to_free is not in iwl_txq_used() desynchronizes the TX ring; walking status[frame_count] past the mapped RX buffer can oops. Kernel WARN/oops or a firmware-assert restart is high availability impact."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/tx.c"], "versions": [{"version": "8ca151b568b67a7b72dcfc6ee6ea7c107ddd795c", "lessThan": "fc14f5fe8a4374ed1088cfbddc1dae4d16c9935b", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8ca151b568b67a7b72dcfc6ee6ea7c107ddd795c", "lessThan": "4d942dfc13aec393e003ab28ff58db744c26e6eb", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "8ca151b568b67a7b72dcfc6ee6ea7c107ddd795c", "lessThan": "8d70881707b47353359df57df12f6de67fdacdd2", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}]}, {"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/tx.c"], "versions": [{"version": "3.9", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "3.9", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.12.111", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.53", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix"}]}], "cpeApplicability": [{"nodes": [{"operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "3.9", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.111"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "3.9", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.53"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "3.9", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fc14f5fe8a4374ed1088cfbddc1dae4d16c9935b"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4d942dfc13aec393e003ab28ff58db744c26e6eb"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8d70881707b47353359df57df12f6de67fdacdd2"}], "title": "wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: validate TX_CMD response layout", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
