CVE-2026-64223
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: consume only present negotiated TTLM maps
ieee80211_tid_to_link_map_size_ok() validates negotiated TTLM elements
against the number of link-map entries indicated by link_map_presence.
ieee80211_parse_neg_ttlm() must consume the same layout.
The parser advanced its cursor for every TID, including TIDs whose
presence bit is clear and therefore have no map bytes in the element.
A sparse map can then make a later present TID read past the validated
element.
The bad bytes land in neg_ttlm->{up,down}link[tid] but are gated by
valid_links before being applied to driver state, so a peer cannot
turn the read into a policy change. Under KUnit + KASAN with an
exact-sized element allocation the OOB read is reported as a
slab-out-of-bounds; whether the same trigger fires under the
production RX path depends on surrounding allocator state.
Advance the cursor only when the current TID has a map present.
