Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 5.16.3

Description The issue is related to the misinterpretation of the dwc3 qcom create urs usb platdev return value in the drivers/usb/dwc3/dwc3-qcom.c file of the Linux kernel. This misinterpretation can lead to a denial of service. The dwc3 qcom probe() function is specifically affected by this issue due to incorrect error pointer checking.

Recommendations For Linux kernel versions prior to 5.16.3, update to version 5.16.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the dwc3 qcom probe() function until a patch is available. Restrict access to the vulnerable dwc3-qcom.c module to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the dwc3 qcom create urs usb platdev function in the affected kernel version until the issue is resolved.
