{"id":"CVE-2026-68350","summary":"wifi: carl9170: fix OOB read from off-by-two in TX status handler","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: carl9170: fix OOB read from off-by-two in TX status handler\n\nThe bounds check in carl9170_tx_process_status() uses\n`i \u003e ((cmd-\u003ehdr.len / 2) + 1)` which is off by two, allowing\n2 extra iterations past valid _tx_status entries when the firmware-\ncontrolled hdr.ext exceeds hdr.len/2. Fix by using the correct\ncomparison `i \u003e= (cmd-\u003ehdr.len / 2)`.","modified":"2026-08-12T04:18:48.083708168Z","published":"2026-08-10T12:03:27.314Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/68xxx/CVE-2026-68350.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/423c836f934814b8fdbe53b24a79d021a0ee8454"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7ed0dce8613c92111d2a3836ced2ab03190ba20e"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a3f42f1049ad80c65560d2b078ad426c3134f78d"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e8a862a3da457ddc50633c346dc645d559da09ae"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fab6ff91d5b8c4af62e2ced42fb357fa3eb9fd59"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/68xxx/CVE-2026-68350.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-68350"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"a84fab3cbfdc427e7d366f1cc844f27b2084c26c"},{"fixed":"7ed0dce8613c92111d2a3836ced2ab03190ba20e"},{"fixed":"e8a862a3da457ddc50633c346dc645d559da09ae"},{"fixed":"fab6ff91d5b8c4af62e2ced42fb357fa3eb9fd59"},{"fixed":"423c836f934814b8fdbe53b24a79d021a0ee8454"},{"fixed":"a3f42f1049ad80c65560d2b078ad426c3134f78d"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-68350.json"}},{"package":{"name":"Kernel","ecosystem":"Linux"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"2.6.37"},{"fixed":"6.6.148"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.7.0"},{"fixed":"6.12.101"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.13.0"},{"fixed":"6.18.42"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.19.0"},{"fixed":"7.1.6"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-68350.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
