Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: vmk80xx: fix transfer-buffer overflows
The driver uses endpoint-sized USB transfer buffers but up until
recently had no sanity checks on the sizes.
Commit e1f13c879a7c ("staging: comedi: check validity of wMaxPacketSize
of usb endpoints found") inadvertently fixed NULL-pointer dereferences
when accessing the transfer buffers in case a malicious device has a
zero wMaxPacketSize.
Make sure to allocate buffers large enough to handle also the other
accesses that are done without a size check (e.g. byte 18 in
vmk80xx_cnt_insn_read() for the VMK8061_MODEL) to avoid writing beyond
the buffers, for example, when doing descriptor fuzzing.
The original driver was for a low-speed device with 8-byte buffers.
Support was later added for a device that uses bulk transfers and is
presumably a full-speed device with a maximum 64-byte wMaxPacketSize.
A flaw was found in the vmk80xx module in the Linux kernel. Memory buffer allocations with incorrect sizes can result in an out-of-bounds write when performing descriptor fuzzing.
Отчет
The vmk80xx module is not built in the kernel shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux, so it is not affected by this vulnerability.
