CVE-2026-74681

Unknown
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the usb: misc: usbio driver has a vulnerability where in usbio_bulk_msg() the EMSGSIZE check compares ibuf_len (receive buffer size) with txbuf_len (transmit endpoint size) instead of rxbuf_len. When these sizes differ, the check is incorrect.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes potential receive buffer overflow or incorrect USB communication behavior, which could lead to crashes or data transmission errors.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that uses rxbuf_len for the IN direction check to match the buffer that actually holds the response data.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: misc: usbio: check ibuf_len against rxbuf_len in bulk msg ibuf_len is the bulk IN (receive) buffer size, but the EMSGSIZE check in usbio_bulk_msg() compares it against txbuf_len — the bulk OUT endpoint size. Both are taken independently from different endpoints in usbio_probe(), so the check is wrong when they differ. Use rxbuf_len for the IN direction. This matches the buffer that actually holds the response data.
