Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: validate control request size

f_audio_complete() copies req->length bytes into a 4-byte stack
variable:

u32 data = 0;
memcpy(&data, req->buf, req->length);

req->length is derived from the host-controlled USB request path,
which can lead to a stack out-of-bounds write.

Validate req->actual against the expected payload size for the
supported control selectors and decode only the expected amount
of data.

This avoids copying a host-influenced length into a fixed-size
stack object.

CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:L)
They already need access on the box, or another person has to do something wrong; it’s not a remote drive-by.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:H)
Serious risk that confidential data gets exposed in a big way.
Integrity (I:H)
They could widely tamper with or forge data—trust in the data is badly hurt.
Availability (A:H)
Could take the service down hard or make it unusable for people who depend on it.
