Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: mtu3: unmap request DMA on queue failure mtu3_gadget_queue() maps the request before checking whether the QMU GPD ring can accept another transfer. the request is returned with -EAGAIN before it is linked on the endpoint request list if mtu3_prepare_transfer() fails.
Normal completion and dequeue paths unmap requests from mtu3_req_complete(), but this error path never reaches that helper, so the DMA mapping is left active. When the `mtu3_gadget_queue()` function encounters a failure during the preparation of a USB transfer, the associated Direct Memory Access (DMA) mapping is not properly released.
This leaves the DMA mapping active, which can lead to a resource leak. Repeated exploitation of this flaw could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service by exhausting system resources.
Red Hat severity: not rated. Weakness: CWE-772.
Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
