Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: usb: pegasus: enable basic endpoint checking<br />
<br />
pegasus_probe() fills URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without<br />
verifying the endpoint descriptors:<br />
<br />
- usb_rcvbulkpipe(dev, 1) for RX data<br />
- usb_sndbulkpipe(dev, 2) for TX data<br />
- usb_rcvintpipe(dev, 3) for status interrupts<br />
<br />
A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types<br />
that differ from what the driver assumes.<br />
<br />
Add a pegasus_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic<br />
constants throughout. Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and<br />
usb_check_int_endpoints() calls before any resource allocation to<br />
verify endpoint types before use, rejecting devices with mismatched<br />
descriptors at probe time, and avoid triggering assertion.<br />
<br />
