Summary

In the Linux kernel, the peak_usb driver for CAN bus added validation of uCAN receive record lengths in pcan_usb_fd_decode_buf(). Each record must contain the fixed header for its type, and CAN payload bytes are verified before copying them into the skb.

Risk Assessment

Lack of validation could lead to out-of-bounds buffer reads, potentially causing system crashes or privilege escalation via a malicious USB device.

Recommendation

Apply the kernel patch containing this validation to protect the system from attacks via connected CAN devices.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: can: peak_usb: validate uCAN receive record lengths pcan_usb_fd_decode_buf() walks uCAN records packed in one USB receive buffer. Require each record to contain the fixed header for its type, and verify CAN payload bytes before copying them into the skb.
