The vulnerability of the mwifiexcmd_802_11_ad_hoc_start() function in the Marvell Linux operating system allows a hacker to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability of the mwifiexcmd80211adhocstart function in the Marvell Linux operating system kernel lies in the copying of buffers without checking the size of the input data. Exploiting this vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code using a long SSID value...

kernel: buffer overflow in mwifiex_cmd_802_11_ad_hoc_start function in drivers/net/wireless/marvell/mwifiex/join.c via a long SSID value

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The marvell wifi driver could allow a local attacker to execute arbitrary code via a long SSID value in mwifiexcmd80211adhocstart function. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability...
