Affected: Alpaquita:23: linux-lts, Alpaquita:25: linux-lts, Alpaquita:stream: linux-lts

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: aspeed_udc: check endpoint DMA allocation

ast_udc_probe() allocates a coherent DMA buffer used as the backing store for endpoint buffers. ast_udc_init_ep() derives per-endpoint buffer pointers from udc->ep0_buf, so a failed allocation is dereferenced during probe.

Check the allocation before endpoint setup. The existing probe error path called ast_udc_remove(), which unregisters the gadget unconditionally and is not safe before usb_add_gadget_udc() succeeds. Add a local cleanup helper for probe failures so pre-registration failures only unwind the resources that were actually initialized.

This was found by a local static analysis checker for unchecked allocator returns while scanning Linux 6.16. The change was checked by applying it to current mainline and by running checkpatch. I do not have access to Aspeed UDC hardware, so no runtime testing was performed.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen im Linux Kernel möglicherweise ausnutzen, um Berechtigungen zu erweitern, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, Daten offenzulegen oder zu manipulieren, den Speicher zu beschädigen, Denial-of-Service-Zustände zu verursachen oder andere, nicht näher spezifizierte Angriffe durchzuführen.
