Bug ID: 224141
Summary: possible Off-by-one bug in the Base64 decoding in the
wpa supplicant
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: wireless
Assignee: [email protected]

Hi guys,
I think there is an issue with the base64 decode function:
from http://web.mit.edu/freebsd/head/contrib/wpa/src/utils/base64.c
unsigned char * base64_decode(const unsigned char *src, size_t len,
size_t *out_len)
{
......
for (i = 0; i < sizeof(base64_table) - 1; i++)
dtable[base64_table[i]] = (unsigned char) i;
.....
the problem is the for loop which initializes the dtable. It does not
initialize the last element from the table ('/') which causes the char to be
interpreted as a garbage and ignored. Please have a closer look.
Best regards,
Ivan
