From 772da7de8fd5fd79223684c5fa8cd81ef882e688 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jouni Malinen Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2020 17:35:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Fix TKIP replay protection immediately after key setup TKIP replay protection was skipped for the very first frame received after a new key is configured. While this is potentially needed to avoid dropping a frame in some cases, this does leave a window for replay attacks with group-addressed frames at the station side. Any earlier frame sent by the AP using the same key would be accepted as a valid frame and the internal RSC would then be updated to the TSC from that frame. This would allow multiple previously transmitted group-addressed frames to be replayed until the next valid new group-addressed frame from the AP is received by the station. Fix this by limiting the no-replay-protection exception to apply only for the case where TSC=0, i.e., when this is for the very first frame protected using the new key, and the local RSC had not been set to a higher value when configuring the key (which may happen with GTK).
