Official Description

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

wifi: brcmfmac: validate bsscfg indices in IF events

brcmf_fweh_handle_if_event() validates the firmware-provided interface

index before it touches drvr->iflist[], but it still uses the raw

bsscfgidx field as an array index without a matching range check.

Reject IF events whose bsscfg index does not fit in drvr->iflist[]

before indexing the interface array.

[add missing wifi prefix]
