commit 13ec7f10b87f5fc04c4ccbd491c94c7980236a74 upstream.

mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie() calls memcpy() unconditionally in
a couple places without checking the destination size.  Since the
source is given from user-space, this may trigger a heap buffer
overflow.

Fix it by putting the length check before performing memcpy().

This fix addresses CVE-2019-3846.
