+Subject: [PATCH] EAP-TLS server: Fix TLS Message Length validation
+
+EAP-TLS/PEAP/TTLS/FAST server implementation did not validate TLS
+Message Length value properly and could end up trying to store more
+information into the message buffer than the allocated size if the first
+fragment is longer than the indicated size. This could result in hostapd
+process terminating in wpabuf length validation. Fix this by rejecting
+messages that have invalid TLS Message Length value.
+
+This would affect cases that use the internal EAP authentication server
+in hostapd either directly with IEEE 802.1X or when using hostapd as a
+RADIUS authentication server and when receiving an incorrectly
+constructed EAP-TLS message. Cases where hostapd uses an external
+authentication are not affected.
+
+Thanks to Timo Warns for finding and reporting this issue.
