Subject: [PATCH] USB: serial: mct_u232: fix NULL-deref on open() failure
Date: Fri,  6 Nov 2026 09:01:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106080155.1967097-1-johan@kernel.org> (raw)

The driver uses a second interrupt endpoint for reading but still
dereferences the port bulk-in URB pointer, which is no longer overridden
by the driver, in an error path.

Fix the dev_err() on failure to submit the read interrupt URB to avoid
dereferencing a NULL-pointer.

Fixes: 35807187e4b3 ("USB: mct_u232: clean up read implementation")
Reported-by: syzbot+58b2d8b19cd6761a395b@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
