From de046fe83c831402496da891566962373264a408 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jozef Hopko Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2024 18:23:20 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wifi: wilc1000: fix ies_len type in connect path MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit [ Upstream commit 39ab8fff623053a50951b659e5f6b72343d7d78c ] Commit 205c50306acf ("wifi: wilc1000: fix RCU usage in connect path") made sure that the IEs data was manipulated under the relevant RCU section. Unfortunately, while doing so, the commit brought a faulty implicit cast from int to u8 on the ies_len variable, making the parsing fail to be performed correctly if the IEs block is larger than 255 bytes. This failure can be observed with Access Points appending a lot of IEs TLVs in their beacon frames (reproduced with a Pixel phone acting as an Access Point, which brough 273 bytes of IE data in my testing environment). Fix IEs parsing by removing this undesired implicit cast.
