VAR-202102-0230

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 13:32

The function CheckMic() in the Realtek RTL8195A Wi-Fi Module prior to versions released in April 2020 (up to and excluding 2.08) does not validate the size parameter for an internal function, _rt_md5_hmac_veneer() or _rt_hmac_sha1_veneer(), resulting in a stack buffer over-read which can be exploited for denial of service. An attacker can impersonate an Access Point and attack a vulnerable Wi-Fi client, by injecting a crafted packet into the WPA2 handshake. The attacker does not need to know the network's PSK. Realtek RTL8195A is an IoT microcontroller from Taiwan Realtek Semiconductor (Realtek).

Realtek RTL8195A versions prior to 2.08 have a buffer overflow vulnerability
