If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From bec444cd1c94c48df409a35ad4e5b143c245c3f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 10 May 2017 18:18:28 +0200 Subject: USB: hub: fix non-SS hub-descriptor handling From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit bec444cd1c94c48df409a35ad4e5b143c245c3f7 upstream. Add missing sanity check on the non-SuperSpeed hub-descriptor length in order to avoid parsing and leaking two bytes of uninitialised slab data through sysfs removable-attributes (or a compound-device debug statement). Note that we only make sure that the DeviceRemovable field is always present (and specifically ignore the unused PortPwrCtrlMask field) in order to continue support any hubs with non-compliant descriptors. As a further safeguard, the descriptor buffer is also cleared.
