CVE-2025-39952

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: wilc1000: avoid buffer overflow in WID string configuration

Fix the following copy overflow warning identified by Smatch checker.

This patch introduces size check before accessing the memory buffer. The checks are base on the WID type of received data from the firmware. For WID string configuration, the size limit is determined by individual element size in 'struct wilc_cfg_str_vals' that is maintained in 'len' field of 'struct wilc_cfg_str'.
