CVE-2026-93807: wifi: rsi: avoid reading TKIP MIC keys for non-TKIP ciphers
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.17% (FIRST EPSS).
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 5207727e53fba1e3a6fce9b2c15b6b8b06c6438b, 55b86ef6c2e68879ffd95203b011ef42a013ab88, 5902e3c08c63d65724772f74d65b9fb032625dca; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.158.1-1.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rsi: avoid reading TKIP MIC keys for non-TKIP ciphers rsi_hal_load_key() copies tx_mic_key and rx_mic_key from data[16] and data[24] whenever key data is present. Those offsets are only part of the 32-byte TKIP key layout. Shorter keys used by other ciphers, such as CCMP, do not provide those bytes, so the unconditional copies can read past the supplied key buffer. Only copy the MIC keys for TKIP, and reject malformed TKIP keys that are shorter than the expected 32-byte layout. [drop useless length check]
