Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
usb: core: hcd: fix possible deadlock in rh control transfers<br />
<br />
>From within the SCSI error handler memory allocations must not<br />
trigger IO. Handling errors in UAS and the storage driver may<br />
involve resetting a device. The thread doing the reset itself<br />
relies on VM magic. However, that is insufficient, as resetting<br />
a device involves resuming it. Resumption as well as resetting<br />
involves conrol transfers to the parent of the device to be reset.<br />
That may be a root hub. Hence usbcore must heed the flags passed<br />
to usb_submit_urb() processing control transfers to root hubs.<br />
<br />
The problem exist since the storage driver has been merged.
