Automatic dependency matching is unavailable for this record. Use the product evidence and publisher’s instructions to check your installation.

What to do

Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.

No structured fix or remediation guidance is available here. Check the full source description and vendor’s latest advisory for a patch or workaround; do not assume another version is safe.

Public exploit evidence

Original source description

Read the full publisher description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: validate bRequest index in generic_{set,get}_cmd

generic_set_cmd() and generic_get_cmd() use the low nibble of ctrl->bRequest as an index into con->data[]:

u8 cmd = (ctrl->bRequest & 0x0F);  /* 0 .. 15 */
...
con->data[cmd] = value;            /* OOB when cmd >= 5 */

struct usb_audio_control (include/linux/usb/audio.h) declares data as a 5-element array, so indices 5 through 15 write (or read) up to 44 bytes past the end of the array on the heap.

A malicious USB host can craft a class-specific SET_CUR / GET_CUR request with an arbitrary bRequest value, triggering the out-of-bounds access from an IRQ completion handler with no further preconditions.

Add an ARRAY_SIZE() guard to both functions.
