Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.

What is the problem

A vulnerability (unclassified) exists in Linux kernel.

Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Linux kernel.

Severity

Severity: ?. Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

How to fix

Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.

Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Audit SBOM/dependencies to find affected services.

Original description The description as published by the source.

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

usb: gadget: f_fs: copy only received bytes on short ep0 read

ffs_ep0_read() allocates its control-OUT data buffer with
kmalloc() (not kzalloc) at the Length value from the Setup
packet, then copies that full len to userspace regardless of
how many bytes were actually received:

data = kmalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL);
...
ret = __ffs_ep0_queue_wait(ffs, data, len);
if ((ret > 0) && (copy_to_user(buf, data, len)))
        ret = -EFAULT;

__ffs_ep0_queue_wait() returns req->actual, which on a short
control OUT transfer is strictly less than len. The
copy_to_user() call still copies len bytes, so on a short OUT
the last (len - ret) bytes of the kmalloc() buffer --
uninitialised slab residue -- are delivered to the FunctionFS
daemon.

Short ep0 OUT completions are specified USB control-transfer
behavior and are produced by in-tree UDCs:

  • dwc2 continues on req->actual < req->length for ep0 DATA OUT
    (short-not-ok is the only ep0-OUT stall path).
  • aspeed_udc ends ep0 OUT on rx_len < ep->ep.maxpacket.
  • renesas_usbf logs "ep0 short packet" and completes the
    request.
  • dwc3 stalls on short IN but not on short OUT.

A short ep0 OUT is therefore not evidence of a broken UDC; it is
a normal condition f_fs has to cope with. The sibling gadgetfs
implementation in drivers/usb/gadget/legacy/inode.c already does
this correctly via min(len, dev->req->actual) before
copy_to_user(). This patc…
