CVE-2022-49740 (Moderate severity, published 2025-03-26)
CVSS score: 6.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:L)
CWE: CWE-125
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: brcmfmac: Check the count value of channel spec to prevent out-of-bounds reads

This patch fixes slab-out-of-bounds reads in brcmfmac that occur in
brcmf_construct_chaninfo() and brcmf_enable_bw40_2g() when the count
value of channel specifications provided by the device is greater than
the length of 'list->element[]', decided by the size of the 'list'
allocated with kzalloc(). The patch adds checks that make the functions
free the buffer and return -EINVAL if that is the case. Note that the
negative return is handled by the caller, brcmf_setup_wiphybands() or
brcmf_cfg80211_attach().

Found by a modified version of syzkaller.
