Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: usb: rtl8150: enable basic endpoint checking<br />
<br />
Syzkaller reports [1] encountering a common issue of utilizing a wrong<br />
usb endpoint type during URB submitting stage. This, in turn, triggers<br />
a warning shown below.<br />
<br />
For now, enable simple endpoint checking (specifically, bulk and<br />
interrupt eps, testing control one is not essential) to mitigate<br />
the issue with a view to do other related cosmetic changes later,<br />
if they are necessary.<br />
<br />
