"value": "AV:A - The bad 5-bit sta_id is in BA_WINDOW_STATUS_NOTIFICATION (cmd 0x13) DMA'd from the Intel WiFi NIC. iwl_pcie_rx_handle_rb → iwl_op_mode_rx → iwl_mvm_rx → iwl_mvm_rx_common dispatches that notif to iwl_mvm_window_status_notif, which reports received MPDUs in the BA window; that is WiFi radio range, not a routable IP protocol.\nAC:L - iwl_mvm_window_status_notif uses notif->ra_tid's 5-bit sta_id with no race or extra kernel gate beyond VALID and mpdu_rx_count != 0. A nearby peer that sends aggregated 802.11 traffic causes firmware to emit this BA window notif; once sta_id >= num_stations the fw_id_to_mac_id[] OOB is deterministic.\nPR:N - iwl_mvm_window_status_notif is an RX_HANDLER_SYNC handler with no capability, socket, or 802.11 authentication check; iwl_mvm_rx_common invokes it from NAPI as soon as cmd 0x13 arrives. A radio-range attacker needs no host account.\nUI:N - The BA_WINDOW_STATUS_NOTIFICATION is processed automatically in iwl_pcie_napi_poll / iwl_mvm_rx_common on an already-up Intel WiFi interface; the attacker does not need the victim to open a file, mount media, or click through a prompt.\nS:U - The OOB index and the later type-confused ieee80211_mark_rx_ba_filtered_frames() call stay inside iwlwifi/mac80211 kernel memory on the same host; they do not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - sta_id is 5 bits (0-31) but fw_id_to_mac_id[] has IWL_STATION_COUNT_MAX (16) entries, so sta_id 16-31 reads adjacent fw_id_to_link_sta[] pointers as ieee80211_sta*. ieee80211_mark_rx_ba_filtered_frames() then container_of()s that into sta_info and follows sta->sdata and tid_rx, a type confusion that can disclose kernel memory.\nI:H - The same confused sta_info is used to write tid_agg_rx->head_seq_num and reorder_buf_filtered and to release reorder-buffer frames into ieee80211_rx_handlers(), so the fw_id_to_link_sta versus ieee80211_sta type confusion is a kernel write / RX-injection primitive.\nA:H - Treating an ieee80211_link_sta* as ieee80211_sta* makes container_of() in ieee80211_mark_rx_ba_filtered_frames() compute a bogus sta_info, and the immediate sta->sdata->local dereference in NAPI oopses or panics."
