Subject: patch "USB: serial: keyspan: fix NULL-derefs on open() and write()" added to usb-linus
Date: Fri, 04 Oct 2019 16:01:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1570197711100241@kroah.com> (raw)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
USB: serial: keyspan: fix NULL-derefs on open() and write()
to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: USB: serial: keyspan: fix NULL-derefs on open() and write()
Fix NULL-pointer dereferences on open() and write() which can be
triggered by a malicious USB device.
The current URB allocation helper would fail to initialise the newly
allocated URB if the device has unexpected endpoint descriptors,
something which could lead NULL-pointer dereferences in a number of
open() and write() paths when accessing the URB. For example:
