Subject: [PATCH 02/10] USB: cdc-acm: more sanity checking
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2016 10:58:58 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458874746-958-2-git-send-email-baolu.lu@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1458874746-958-1-git-send-email-baolu.lu@linux.intel.com>
From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.com>
An attack has become available which pretends to be a quirky
device circumventing normal sanity checks and crashes the kernel
by an insufficient number of interfaces. This patch adds a check
to the code path for quirky devices.
