      "title": "usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in FUNCTIONFS_ENDPOINT_DESC",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusb: gadget: f_fs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in FUNCTIONFS_ENDPOINT_DESC\n\nWhen user space sets up FunctionFS with only full-speed descriptors\n(e.g., flags = FUNCTIONFS_HAS_FS_DESC) and the gadget operates at a\nhigher speed (such as USB_SPEED_HIGH or USB_SPEED_SUPER),\nconfig_ep_by_speed() detects that the function lacks descriptors for\nthe current speed, logs a warning, and falls back to full-speed\ndescriptors. The endpoint is then successfully enabled via\nusb_ep_enable(), and epfile->ep becomes valid.\n\nHowever, when user space subsequently issues the FUNCTIONFS_ENDPOINT_DESC\nioctl to query the endpoint descriptor, ffs_epfile_ioctl() selects the\ndescriptor index solely based on gadget->speed:\n\n\tswitch (epfile->ffs->gadget->speed) {\n\tcase USB_SPEED_SUPER:\n\tcase USB_SPEED_SUPER_PLUS:\n\t\tdesc_idx = 2;\n\t\tbreak;\n\tcase USB_SPEED_HIGH:\n\t\tdesc_idx = 1;\n\t\tbreak;\n\tdefault:\n\t\tdesc_idx = 0;\n\t}\n\tdesc = epfile->ep->descs[desc_idx];\n\tmemcpy(&desc1, desc, desc->bLength);\n\nBecause user space only supplied full-speed descriptors,\nepfile->ep->descs[1] is NULL. Dereferencing desc->bLength triggers an\nimmediate kernel NULL pointer dereference panic.\n\nFix this by falling back through lower speed descriptors if the current\nspeed descriptor was not supplied, matching the fallback logic in\nconfig_ep_by_speed() and historical f_fs behavior. If still missing,\nfall back to epfile->ep->ep->desc (the active descriptor), and return\n-EINVAL safely if no valid descriptor is found. In addition, mark desc\nas const to match struct usb_ep::desc and avoid discarding qualifiers.",
