CVE-2024-44960 MEDIUM

Published: 2024-09-04 | Last Modified: 2026-05-12 | Status: Modified

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: core: Check for unset descriptor Make sure the descriptor has been set before looking at maxpacket. This fixes a null pointer panic in this case. This may happen if the gadget doesn't properly set up the endpoint for the current speed, or the gadget descriptors are malformed and the descriptor for the speed/endpoint are not found. No current gadget driver is known to have this problem, but this may cause a hard-to-find bug during development of new gadgets.

Additional Descriptions (1)

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: usb: gadget: core: Comprobar si hay un descriptor no configurado Asegúrese de que el descriptor se haya configurado antes de consultar maxpacket. Esto soluciona un error de puntero nulo en este caso. Esto puede suceder si el gadget no configura correctamente el endpoint para la velocidad actual, o si los descriptores del gadget están mal formados y no se encuentra el descriptor para la velocidad/endpoint. No se conoce ningún controlador de gadget actual que tenga este problema, pero puede causar un error difícil de encontrar durante el desarrollo de nuevos gadgets.
