Same applies below too. And also if you set n_channels before, perhaps it's actually OK to get a pointer to *after*? Not sure though. johannes

FWIW I argued this in the past in another context and Linus gave his opinion: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAHk-=whFKYMrF6euVvziW+drw7-yi1pYdf=uccnzJ8k09DoTXA@mail.gmail.com/

The reason not to use the channels[] array is because we're not addressing anything in the array -- we're addressing past it. Better to use the correct allocation base. -Kees

We have the same, and more, bugs in cfg80211_scan_6ghz() which I'm fixing right now, but no idea how to actually get the checks done? johannes

You'll need a toolchain with __counted_by support, which I believe is only clang 18+ at this point (I have prebuilts available at [1]), and CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS enabled, then they should just pop up in dmesg.

Before request->channels[] can be used, request->n_channels must be set. Additionally, address calculations for memory after the "channels" array need to be calculated from the allocation base ("request") rather than via the first "out of bounds" index of "channels", otherwise run-time bounds checking will throw a warning.
