In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: avoid out-of-bounds read for empty PREQ elements
ieee80211_mesh_preq_size_ok() derives the location of the PREQ bottom
fields before checking whether the element contains even the fixed
header. ieee80211_mesh_hwmp_preq_get_bottom() reads the flags byte to
account for the optional Address Extension field. Consequently, an
empty PREQ element causes a one-byte read beyond its declared payload.
Move the helper call after both size checks, so the bottom fields are
only accessed when they are present.
BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
