This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: iowarrior: fix NULL-deref at probe 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. >From b7321e81fc369abe353cf094d4f0dc2fe11ab95f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2017 16:11:03 +0100 Subject: USB: iowarrior: fix NULL-deref at probe Make sure to check for the required interrupt-in endpoint to avoid dereferencing a NULL-pointer should a malicious device lack such an endpoint. Note that a fairly recent change purported to fix this issue, but added an insufficient test on the number of endpoints only, a test which can now be removed. Fixes: 4ec0ef3a8212 ("USB: iowarrior: fix oops with malicious USB descriptors") Fixes: 946b960d13c1 ("USB: add driver for iowarrior devices.")
