Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue concerns the Linux kernel, specifically the UCSI (USB Type-C Interface) component. Between UCSI 1.2 and UCSI 2.0, the size of the MESSAGE IN region was increased from 16 to 256. To avoid overflowing reads for older systems, a mechanism was added to use the read UCSI version to truncate read sizes on UCSI v1.2.
