{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2022-50551","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  wifi: brcmfmac: Fix potential shift-out-of-bounds in brcmf_fw_alloc_request()  This patch fixes a shift-out-of-bounds in brcmfmac that occurs in BIT(chiprev) when a 'chiprev' provided by the device is too large. It should also not be equal to or greater than BITS_PER_TYPE(u32) as we do bitwise AND with a u32 variable and BIT(chiprev). The patch adds a check that makes the function return NULL if that is the case. Note that the NULL case is later handled by the bus-specific caller, brcmf_usb_probe_cb() or brcmf_usb_reset_resume(), for example.  Found by a modified version of syzkaller.
