brcm80211: potential NULL dereference in brcmf_cfg80211_vndr_cmds_dcmd_handler()
If "ret_len" is negative then it could lead to a NULL dereference. The "ret_len" value comes from nl80211_vendor_cmd(), if it's negative then we don't allocate the "dcmd_buf" buffer. Then we pass "ret_len" to brcmf_fil_cmd_data_set() where it is cast to a very high u32 value. Most of the functions in that call tree check whether the buffer we pass is NULL but there are at least a couple places which don't such as brcmf_dbg_hex_dump() and brcmf_msgbuf_query_dcmd(). We memcpy() to and from the buffer so it would result in a NULL dereference. The fix is to change the types so that "ret_len" can't be negative. (If we memcpy() zero bytes to NULL, that's a no-op and doesn't cause an issue).
