From: Dierk Modrow <[email protected]> It fixes a SEGV in eapol_rx_packets at receipt of EAPOL M1 msg at legacy roaming following a failed FT-handover due to a preceding ft_auth-/ft_reassoc-timeout. The issue only arises when using mwifiex / NXP 88W9098 driver for the client's WLAN module. We have seen the issue with SIEMENS SCALANCE W700 AX APs, but it may also occur with other AP brands supporting FT-handover. --- src/eapol.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/eapol.c b/src/eapol.c index 372549c6..c2dc4e4c 100644 --- a/src/eapol.c +++ b/src/eapol.c @@ -2824,6 +2824,10 @@ void eapol_register(struct eapol_sm *sm) l_queue_push_head(state_machines, sm); + /* workaround against SEGV on fct. eapol_rx_packet by avoiding for two different eapol_frame_watches with different ids, but same eapol_sm ptr */ + if ((sm->watch_id > 0) && eapol_frame_watch_remove(sm->watch_id)) { + l_debug("existing frame_watch for sm=%p with id=%u successfully removed", sm, sm->watch_id); + } sm->watch_id = eapol_frame_watch_add(sm->handshake->ifindex, rx_handler, sm); sm->protocol_version = sm->handshake->proto_version; -- 2.49.0.windows.1
