Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: renesas_usb3: validate endpoint index in standard request handlers
The GET_STATUS and SET/CLEAR_FEATURE handlers extract the endpoint number from the host-supplied wIndex without any sort of validation. Fix this up by validating the number of endpoints actually match up with the number the device has before attempting to dereference a pointer based on this math.
This is just like what was done in commit ee0d382feb44 (“usb: gadget: aspeed_udc: validate endpoint index for ast udc”) for the aspeed driver.
