Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: serial: belkin_sa: validate interrupt status length The Belkin interrupt callback treats interrupt data as a four-byte status report and reads LSR/MSR fields at offsets 2 and 3.
The interrupt-in buffer length is derived from endpoint wMaxPacketSize, and short interrupt transfers may complete successfully with a smaller actual_length.
Check the completed interrupt packet length before parsing status fields so short interrupt endpoints and short successful packets are ignored instead of causing out-of-bounds or stale status-byte reads.
KASAN report as below: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in belkin_sa_read_int_callback() Read of size 1 Call trace: belkin_sa_read_int_callback() (drivers/usb/serial/belkin_sa.c:202) __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() (drivers/usb/core/hcd.c:1630) dummy_timer() (?:?) The driver's interrupt handling routine fails to validate the length of incoming status reports.
This oversight allows a local attacker, by connecting a specially crafted USB device, to trigger an out-of-bounds read. The primary consequence is a system crash, leading to a denial of service.
This vulnerability is rated as having a Moderate impact for Red Hat Enterprise Linux because exploitation requires local access with the capability to attach a physical or emulated USB device.
