Out-of-Bounds Read in Linux Kernel (CVE-2025-39757)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux Kernel (CVE-2025-39757). Confidential information can be exposed externally.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Validate UAC3 cluster segment descriptors
UAC3 class segment descriptors need to be verified whether their sizes
match with the declared lengths and whether they fit with the
allocated buffer sizes, too. Otherwise malicious firmware may lead to
the unexpected OOB accesses.
