Title
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: Fix response handling in iwl_mvm_send_recovery_cmd()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: Fix response handling in iwl_mvm_send_recovery_cmd()
1. The size of the response packet is not validated.
2. The response buffer is not freed.
Resolve these issues by switching to iwl_mvm_send_cmd_status(),
which handles both size validation and frees the buffer.

{

"value": "AV:A - The vulnerable code is only entered through the iwlwifi firmware-error/HW-restart recovery flow, which an attacker within Wi-Fi radio range can drive by sending malformed 802.11 frames that provoke firmware asserts. This requires being on the same radio segment, not routable network access.\nAC:L - Once a recovery cycle occurs the response page is leaked deterministically on every invocation, and an adjacent attacker can repeat the stimulus to re-enter the path arbitrarily often. No memory-layout grooming or uncontrollable victim state is needed.\nPR:N - The adjacent radio attacker needs no credentials on the target host and no association is required to emit frames that provoke firmware errors. Nothing along the path from `iwl_mvm_nic_error()` to `iwl_mvm_send_recovery_cmd()` performs a privilege check.\nUI:N - The device only needs its Wi-Fi interface up; the recovery path is entered automatically by the driver\u0027s error handler with no victim action.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds read, the leaked page, and the forced disconnect all stay within the kernel\u0027s own security authority on the affected host. No VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:L - The unvalidated `*(__le32 *)host_cmd.resp_pkt-\u003edata` read can pull up to 4 bytes of adjacent kernel memory from beyond the declared payload, and that value is emitted to the kernel log by `IWL_ERR`. The disclosure is strictly bounded to a fixed 4 bytes rather than an arbitrary read.\nI:N - There is no out-of-bounds or attacker-controlled write anywhere in the flow \u2014 the defect is a read of an unvalidated length plus a missing free. No kernel data or control flow can be corrupted.\nA:H - Every recovery cycle leaks an entire RX page (`iwl_free_resp()` is never called), so repeated attacker-induced firmware restarts cause unbounded kernel memory exhaustion, which is serious on the embedded/IoT/automotive systems this driver runs on. Additionally, a garbage non-zero status read out of bounds triggers `ieee80211_hw_restart_disconnect()` on every station interface, tearing down all Wi-Fi connectivity on a host where Wi-Fi is often the only link."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
