Descriptions

A vulnerability was discovered in how p2p/p2p_pd.c in wpa_supplicant before 2.10 processes P2P (Wi-Fi Direct) provision discovery requests. It could result in denial of service or other impact (potentially execution of arbitrary code), for an attacker within radio range.

Se detectó una vulnerabilidad en la manera en que el archivo p2p/p2p_pd.c en wpa_supplicant versiones anteriores a 2.10, procesa unas peticiones de detección de aprovisionamiento P2P (Wi-Fi Direct). Podría resultar en una denegación de servicio u otro impacto (potencialmente una ejecución de código arbitraria), para un atacante dentro del alcance del radio

A flaw was found in the wpa_supplicant, in the way it processes P2P (Wi-Fi Direct) provision discovery requests. This flaw allows an attacker who is within radio range of the device running P2P discovery to cause termination of the wpa_supplicant process or potentially cause code execution. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
