wpa_supplicant: fix for security advisory 2020-2
A vulnerability was discovered in how wpa_supplicant processing P2P
(Wi-Fi Direct) group information from active group owners. The actual
parsing of that information validates field lengths appropriately, but
processing of the parsed information misses a length check when storing
a copy of the secondary device types. This can result in writing
attacker controlled data into the peer entry after the area assigned for
the secondary device type. The overflow can result in corrupting
pointers for heap allocations. This can result in an attacker within
radio range of the device running P2P discovery being able to cause
unexpected behavior, including termination of the wpa_supplicant process
and potentially arbitrary code execution.
