[PATCH for-4.14 0/2] brcmfmac: scan related fixes

[Arend van Spriel]

Two patches related to scanning functionality in the driver. The first
patch addresses a security vulnerability in firmware notification
handling. The second one fixes a reported API issue in which the driver
ignored a passive scan request from user-space.

The patches apply to the master branch of the wireless-drivers
repository.

Arend van Spriel (2):
  brcmfmac: add length check in brcmf_cfg80211_escan_handler()
  brcmfmac: setup passive scan if requested by user-space

[PATCH for-4.14 1/2] brcmfmac: add length check in brcmf_cfg80211_escan_handler()

[Arend van Spriel]

Upon handling the firmware notification for scans the length was
checked properly and may result in corrupting kernel heap memory
due to buffer overruns. This fix addresses CVE-2017-0786.

[PATCH for-4.14 2/2] brcmfmac: setup passive scan if requested by user-space

[Arend van Spriel]

The driver was not properly configuring firmware with regard to the
type of scan. It always performed an active scan even when user-space
was requesting for passive scan, ie. the scan request was done without
any SSIDs specified.
