From 9062d50e75c24dc7911be05c9b1719b3b256af15 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liu Chao Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2026 15:25:51 +0800 Subject: usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: validate bRequest index in generic_{set,get}_cmd generic_set_cmd() and generic_get_cmd() use the low nibble of ctrl->bRequest as an index into con->data[]: u8 cmd = (ctrl->bRequest & 0x0F); /* 0 .. 15 */ ... con->data[cmd] = value; /* OOB when cmd >= 5 */ struct usb_audio_control (include/linux/usb/audio.h) declares data as a 5-element array, so indices 5 through 15 write (or read) up to 44 bytes past the end of the array on the heap. A malicious USB host can craft a class-specific SET_CUR / GET_CUR request with an arbitrary bRequest value, triggering the out-of-bounds access from an IRQ completion handler with no further preconditions. Add an ARRAY_SIZE() guard to both functions.

You can +check the capability of your kernel, in most cases, by looking into config file +within the /boot directory. + +Do I have root access to the system? +------------------------------------ + +Are you easily able to replace the module in question or to install a new +kernel? + +In that case your range of available tools is a lot bigger, you can find the +tools in the :doc:`/process/debugging/driver_development_debugging_guide`. + +Is timing a factor? +------------------- + +It is important to understand if the problem you want to debug manifests itself +consistently (i.e. given a set of inputs you always get the same, incorrect +output), or inconsistently. If it manifests itself inconsistently, some timing +factor might be at play. If inserting delays into the code does change the +behavior, then quite likely timing is a factor. + +When timing does alter the outcome of the code execution using a simple +printk() for debugging purposes may not work, a similar alternative is to use +trace_printk() , which logs the debug messages to the trace file instead of the +kernel log. + +**Copyright** ©2024 : Collabora -- cgit v1.3.1
