CVE-2019-9501 Description

The Broadcom wl WiFi driver is vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow. By supplying a vendor information element with a data length larger than 32 bytes, a heap buffer overflow is triggered in wlc_wpa_sup_eapol.

More typically, this vulnerability will result in denial-of-service conditions.
