Descriptions

On the Broadcom Wi-Fi HardMAC SoC with fbt firmware, a stack buffer overflow occurs when handling an 802.11r (FT) authentication response, leading to remote code execution via a crafted access point that sends a long R0KH-ID field in a Fast BSS Transition Information Element (FT-IE).

En el Broadcom Wi-Fi HardMAC SoC con firmware fbt, se produce un desbordamiento del búfer de la pila al manejar una respuesta de autenticación 802.11r (FT), que conduce a la ejecución remota de código a través de un punto de acceso manipulado que envía un archivo largo R0KH-ID en un Fast BSS Transition Information Element (FT-IE).
