mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie() stores raw pointers into the beacon buffer for the HT Capability, HT Operation, VHT Capability and VHT Operation elements without checking that the element is long enough to hold the corresponding fixed-size structure. The generic IE loop only guarantees that the declared element length fits inside the beacon buffer (bytes_left >= total_ie_len); it does not guarantee that element_len is large enough for the struct that later consumers copy. beacon_buf is a tight kmemdup() of the over-the-air IEs. When the association command is built, mwifiex_cmd_append_11n_tlv() / mwifiex_cmd_append_11ac_tlv() copy a fixed number of bytes from the stored pointers (sizeof(struct ieee80211_ht_cap) and friends). A malicious AP that emits a beacon or probe response ending in a truncated (e.g. zero-length) HT Capability element leaves bcn_ht_cap pointing near the end of the slab, and the subsequent copy reads out of bounds. The leaked bytes are placed into the association request transmitted back to the AP, disclosing adjacent slab memory; on CONFIG_KASAN / panic_on_oops kernels it is an out-of-bounds oops. Commit 685c9b7750bf ("mwifiex: Abort at too short BSS descriptor element") added such length checks for the FH/DS/CF/IBSS parameter sets and a few other elements, but did not cover the HT/VHT capability and operation elements. Validate element_len against the size of the structure that will be consumed, mirroring those existing checks.
