Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y] ALSA: usb-audio: fix null pointer dereference on pointer cs_desc
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 16:20:47 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421132047.38233-1-kovalev@altlinux.org> (raw)
From: Chengfeng Ye <cyeaa@connect.ust.hk>
commit b97053df0f04747c3c1e021ecbe99db675342954 upstream.
The pointer cs_desc return from snd_usb_find_clock_source could
be null, so there is a potential null pointer dereference issue.
Fix this by adding a null check before dereference.

Fixes: 1dc669fed61a ("ALSA: usb-audio: UAC2: support read-only freq control")
[ kovalev: bp to fix CVE-2021-47211; added Fixes tag; the null
check was added into both UAC2 and UAC3 branches since the
older kernel still has the clock source lookup split between
snd_usb_find_clock_source() and snd_usb_find_clock_source_v3()
(see upstream commit 9ec730052fa2) ]
