CVE-2024-36977

CVSS v3.1

5.5

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.37
Description The issue is related to a race condition in the dwc3 stop active transfer() function, which can lead to SMMU faults. This occurs when an IN request is queued and soft disconnect is called, causing stop active transfer to be called with IOC cleared. As a result, send gadget ep cmd() skips waiting for CMDACT to be cleared during EndXfer, leading to potential faults. The vulnerability is associated with controller IP/revisions except DWC3 usb3 >= 310a, which supports the GUCTL2[14: Rst actbitlater] bit for polling CMDACT.
Recommendations To resolve the issue, update the Linux kernel to version 6.6.37 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider adding a 1ms delay in the dwc3 stop active transfer() function to ensure ENDXFER completion.
