S1G beacons are not traditional beacons but a type of extension frame. Extension frames contain the frame control and duration fields, followed by zero or more optional fields before the frame body. These optional fields are distinct from the variable length elements. The presence of optional fields is indicated in the frame control field. To correctly locate the elements offset, the frame control must be parsed to identify which optional fields are present. Currently, mac80211 parses S1G beacons based on fixed assumptions about the frame layout, without inspecting the frame control field. This can result in incorrect offsets to the "variable" portion of the frame. Properly parse S1G beacon frames by using the field lengths defined in IEEE 802.11-2024, section 9.3.4.3, ensuring that the elements offset is calculated accurately. Fixes: |
