-Subject: [PATCH 2/5] Reject psk parameter set with invalid passphrase
- character
-
-WPA/WPA2-Personal passphrase is not allowed to include control
-characters. Reject a passphrase configuration attempt if that passphrase
-includes an invalid passphrase.
-
-This fixes an issue where wpa_supplicant could have updated the
-configuration file psk parameter with arbitrary data from the control
-interface or D-Bus interface. While those interfaces are supposed to be
-accessible only for trusted users/applications, it may be possible that
-an untrusted user has access to a management software component that
-does not validate the passphrase value before passing it to
-wpa_supplicant.
-
-This could allow such an untrusted user to inject up to 63 characters of
-almost arbitrary data into the configuration file. Such configuration
-file could result in wpa_supplicant trying to load a library (e.g.,
-opensc_engine_path, pkcs11_engine_path, pkcs11_module_path,
-load_dynamic_eap) from user controlled location when starting again.
-This would allow code from that library to be executed under the
-wpa_supplicant process privileges.
