Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue concerns the Linux kernel's handling of USB endpoints in the xillybus driver. Specifically, it involves verifying that all endpoints the driver attempts to access exist and are of the correct type when probing a device. All XillyUSB devices must have a Bulk IN and Bulk OUT endpoint at address 1, which is checked by the
xillyusb setup base eps() function. Additionally, these devices may have extra Bulk OUT endpoints, with their addresses deduced from a data structure called the IDT fetched by the driver during probing, and checked in the setup channels() function. Since a XillyUSB device only has one IN endpoint for multiplexing data towards the host, setup channels() only checks OUT endpoints.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
