Descriptions

The eap_pwd_process function in eap_peer/eap_pwd.c in wpa_supplicant 2.x before 2.6 does not validate that the reassembly buffer is large enough for the final fragment when EAP-pwd is enabled in a network configuration profile, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process termination) via a large final fragment in an EAP-pwd message.

La función eap_pwd_process en eap_peer/eap_pwd.c en wpa_supplicant, en versiones 2.x anteriores a la 2.6, no valida que el búfer de reensamblaje sea lo bastante grande para el fragmento final cuando EAP-pwd está habilitado en un perfil de configuración de red. Esto permite que atacantes remotos provoquen una denegación de servicio (finalización del proceso) mediante un fragmento final grande en un mensaje EAP-pwd.
