CVE-2019-9502 (GCVE-0-2019-9502)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-02-03 21:00 – Updated: 2024-08-04 21:54
VLAI?
Summary
The Broadcom wl WiFi driver is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow. If the vendor information element data length is larger than 164 bytes, a heap buffer overflow is triggered in wlc_wpa_plumb_gtk. In the worst case scenario, by sending specially-crafted WiFi packets, a remote, unauthenticated attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system. More typically, this vulnerability will result in denial-of-service conditions.
Severity ?
7.9 (High)
