* hostapd: P2P: Fix a corner case in peer addition based on PD RequestStefan Lippers-Hollmann2021-03-011-0/+45
p2p_add_device() may remove the oldest entry if there is no room in the peer table for a new peer. This would result in any pointer to that removed entry becoming stale. A corner case with an invalid PD Request frame could result in such a case ending up using (read+write) freed memory. This could only by triggered when the peer table has reached its maximum size and the PD Request frame is received from the P2P Device Address of the oldest remaining entry and the frame has incorrect P2P Device Address in the payload. Fix this by fetching the dev pointer again after having called p2p_add_device() so that the stale pointer cannot be used. This fixes the following security vulnerabilities/bugs: - CVE-2021-27803 - A vulnerability was discovered in how p2p/p2p_pd.c in wpa_supplicant before 2.10 processes P2P (Wi-Fi Direct) provision discovery requests. It could result in denial of service or other impact (potentially execution of arbitrary code), for an attacker within radio range.
