The TIM is handed in as the element payload:\nieee802_11_parse_elems_full() stores elems->tim = elem->data and\nelems->tim_len = elem->datalen (net/mac80211/parse.c), so the valid bytes\nare [tim, tim + tim_len).\n\nWhen walking the encoded blocks the function passes the walker an end\nsentinel of (const u8 *)tim + tim_len + 2, i.e. two bytes past the end of\nthe element. ieee80211_s1g_find_target_block() loops while (ptr + 1 <= end)\nand dereferences ptr (and the per-mode ieee80211_s1g_len_*() helpers read\n*ptr), so it can read up to two bytes beyond the TIM element -- an\nout-of-bounds read of adjacent skb/heap data when the TIM is the last\nelement in the frame. The +2 appears to account for the element id/len\nheader, but tim already points past that header at the element payload, so\nthe addend is wrong.\n\nPass the correct element end, (const u8 *)tim + tim_len.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3abc13ec3ac28c343ad7e7b7496e807b924f0edd","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/68cf46755894d495b432e21f9e25637030d8b075","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b224d18b1e5d1cddfc67f63f41d80023b2ec8889"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:48:17.459049833+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-74336","score":0.00206,"percentile":0.1059,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
