From 11a1db99b93dbb5f7b78cffe9b85e616ab749776 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2017 14:25:13 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] USB: core: prevent malicious bNumInterfaces overflow commit 48a4ff1c7bb5a32d2e396b03132d20d552c0eca7 upstream. A malicious USB device with crafted descriptors can cause the kernel to access unallocated memory by setting the bNumInterfaces value too high in a configuration descriptor. Although the value is adjusted during parsing, this adjustment is skipped in one of the error return paths. This patch prevents the problem by setting bNumInterfaces to 0 initially. The existing code already sets it to the proper value after parsing is complete.
