Adjacent information disclosure via faulty EHT bounds check
Published Sep 8, 2026 · Updated Sep 10, 2026
Out-of-bounds read in Google Android 14 through 17 allows physically proximate attackers to disclose memory via crafted Wi-Fi input. get_eht_operation_channel_width in ieee802_11_common.c performs an inadequate length check before reading the EHT operation information fields. A nearby transmitter can trigger the read without authentication or user interaction; the reported consequence is information disclosure only.
