Description:
 In the Linux kernel through 5.3.2, cfg80211_mgd_wext_giwessid in
 net/wireless/wext-sme.c does not reject a long SSID IE, leading to a Buffer
 Overflow.
Ubuntu-Description:
 Nicolas Waisman discovered that the WiFi driver stack in the Linux kernel
 did not properly validate SSID lengths. A physically proximate attacker
 could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
Notes:
