Pending analysis
Type:
CWE-476
NULL Pointer Dereference
Publication date:
04/09/2024
Last modified:

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
usb: gadget: core: Check for unset descriptor<br />
<br />
Make sure the descriptor has been set before looking at maxpacket.<br />
This fixes a null pointer panic in this case.<br />
<br />
This may happen if the gadget doesn&#39;t properly set up the endpoint<br />
for the current speed, or the gadget descriptors are malformed and<br />
the descriptor for the speed/endpoint are not found.<br />
<br />
No current gadget driver is known to have this problem, but this<br />
may cause a hard-to-find bug during development of new gadgets.
