  "details" : [ "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\nwifi: nl80211: reject oversized EMA RNR lists\nnl80211_parse_rnr_elems() stores the parsed element count in a\nu8-backed cfg80211_rnr_elems::cnt field and uses that count to size\nthe flexible array allocation.\nReject nested NL80211_ATTR_EMA_RNR_ELEMS input once the count reaches\n255, before incrementing it again. This keeps the parser aligned with\nthe data structure it fills and matches the existing bound check used\nby nl80211_parse_mbssid_elems().", "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's nl80211 Wi-Fi subsystem. The nl80211_parse_rnr_elems() function, responsible for parsing EMA RNR (Enhanced Multiple Access Reduced Neighbor Report) lists, does not properly handle an excessive number of nested NL80211_ATTR_EMA_RNR_ELEMS inputs. This improper input validation could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) by providing an oversized EMA RNR list, potentially leading to system instability or a crash." ],
