This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: Fix slab-out-of-bounds write in usb_get_bos_descriptor 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 a03ff54460817c76105f81f3aa8ef655759ccc9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 13 May 2019 13:14:29 -0400 Subject: USB: Fix slab-out-of-bounds write in usb_get_bos_descriptor The syzkaller USB fuzzer found a slab-out-of-bounds write bug in the USB core, caused by a failure to check the actual size of a BOS descriptor. This patch adds a check to make sure the descriptor is at least as large as it is supposed to be, so that the code doesn't inadvertently access memory beyond the end of the allocated region when assigning to dev->bos->desc->bNumDeviceCaps later on.
