This prevents unexpected +sequences where an unprotected frame might end up causing the AP to send +out a response to another device and that other device processing the +unexpected response. + +In particular, this prevents some potential denial of service cases +where the unexpected response frame from the AP might result in a +connected station dropping its association. + +Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> +--- + src/ap/drv_callbacks.c | 13 +++++++++++++ + src/ap/ieee802_11.c | 12 ++++++++++++ + 2 files changed, 25 insertions(+) + +diff --git a/src/ap/drv_callbacks.c b/src/ap/drv_callbacks.c +index 31587685fe3b..34ca379edc3d 100644 +--- a/src/ap/drv_callbacks.c ++++ b/src/ap/drv_callbacks.c +@@ -131,6 +131,19 @@ int hostapd_notif_assoc(struct hostapd_data *hapd, const u8 *addr, + "hostapd_notif_assoc: Skip event with no address"); + return -1; + } ++ ++ if (is_multicast_ether_addr(addr) || ++ is_zero_ether_addr(addr) || ++ os_memcmp(addr, hapd->own_addr, ETH_ALEN) == 0) { ++ /* Do not process any frames with unexpected/invalid SA so that ++ * we do not add any state for unexpected STA addresses or end ++ * up sending out frames to unexpected destination. */ ++ wpa_printf(MSG_DEBUG, "%s: Invalid SA=" MACSTR ++ " in received indication - ignore this indication silently", ++ __func__, MAC2STR(addr)); ++ return 0; ++ } ++ + random_add_randomness(addr, ETH_ALEN); + + hostapd_logger(hapd, addr, HOSTAPD_MODULE_IEEE80211, +diff --git a/src/ap/ieee802_11.c b/src/ap/ieee802_11.c +index c85a28db44b7..e7065372e158 100644 +--- a/src/ap/ieee802_11.c ++++ b/src/ap/ieee802_11.c +@@ -4626,6 +4626,18 @@ int ieee802_11_mgmt(struct hostapd_data *hapd, const u8 *buf, size_t len, + fc = le_to_host16(mgmt->frame_control); + stype = WLAN_FC_GET_STYPE(fc); + ++ if (is_multicast_ether_addr(mgmt->sa) || ++ is_zero_ether_addr(mgmt->sa) || ++ os_memcmp(mgmt->sa, hapd->own_addr, ETH_ALEN) == 0) { ++ /* Do not process any frames with unexpected/invalid SA so that ++ * we do not add any state for unexpected STA addresses or end ++ * up sending out frames to unexpected destination. */ ++ wpa_printf(MSG_DEBUG, "MGMT: Invalid SA=" MACSTR ++ " in received frame - ignore this frame silently", ++ MAC2STR(mgmt->sa)); ++ return 0; ++ } ++ + if (stype == WLAN_FC_STYPE_BEACON) { + handle_beacon(hapd, mgmt, len, fi); + return 1; +-- +2.20.1 + |
