Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: ath9k: Fix potential array-index-out-of-bounds read in ath9k_htc_txstatus()

Fix an array-index-out-of-bounds read in ath9k_htc_txstatus(). The bug
occurs when txs->cnt, data from a URB provided by a USB device, is
bigger than the size of the array txs->txstatus, which is
HTC_MAX_TX_STATUS. WARN_ON() already checks it, but there is no bug
handling code after the check. Make the function return if that is the
case.

Found by a modified version of syzkaller.

UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in htc_drv_txrx.c
index 13 is out of range for type '__wmi_event_txstatus [12]'
Call Trace:
 ath9k_htc_txstatus

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
