CVE-2026-68190

EUVD-2026-55291
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB reads in rtw_get_wps_ie()

rtw_get_wps_ie() iterates over IE data from network frames without
validating that the IE header and payload fit within the remaining
buffer before reading them. Specifically:

- in_ie[cnt + 1] is read without checking cnt + 1 < in_len
- memcmp(&in_ie[cnt + 2], ...) accesses cnt + 2 without bounds check
- in_ie[cnt + 1] is used as length without verifying payload fits

Add bounds checks at the top of the loop body to break early if fewer
than 2 bytes remain for the IE header, or if the declared payload
extends past the end of the buffer. Also require at least 4 bytes of
payload before comparing the WPS OUI.
