| Subject: CVE-2025-21776: USB: hub: Ignore non-compliant devices with too many configs or interfaces |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| USB: hub: Ignore non-compliant devices with too many configs or interfaces |
| |
| Robert Morris created a test program which can cause |
| usb_hub_to_struct_hub() to dereference a NULL or inappropriate |
| pointer: |
| |
| Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address |
| 0xcccccccccccccccc: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC PTI |
| CPU: 7 UID: 0 PID: 117 Comm: kworker/7:1 Not tainted 6.13.0-rc3-00017-gf44d154d6e3d #14 |
| Hardware name: FreeBSD BHYVE/BHYVE, BIOS 14.0 10/17/2021 |
| Workqueue: usb_hub_wq hub_event |
| RIP: 0010:usb_hub_adjust_deviceremovable+0x78/0x110 |
| ... |
| Call Trace: |

| |
| The cause of this error is that the device has two interfaces, and the |
| hub driver binds to interface 1 instead of interface 0, which is where |
| usb_hub_to_struct_hub() looks. |
| |
| We can prevent the problem from occurring by refusing to accept hub |
| devices that violate the USB spec by having more than one |
| configuration or interface. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-21776 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
