CVE-2026-64233CVE-2026-64233
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: hold opts->lock across XU walks in uvc_function_bind
uvc_function_bind() walks &opts->extension_units twice without holding
opts->lock:
- directly, for the iExtension string-descriptor fixup loop;
- indirectly, four times via uvc_copy_descriptors() (once per speed),
where the helper iterates uvc->desc.extension_units (which aliases
&opts->extension_units) to size and emit XU descriptors.
The configfs side (uvcg_extension_make / uvcg_extension_drop, in
drivers/usb/gadget/function/uvc_configfs.c) takes opts->lock around its
list_add_tail / list_del operations. A privileged userspace process
that holds the configfs subtree open and writes the gadget UDC name
to bind the function while concurrently rmdir()'ing an extensions
subdir can race uvcg_extension_drop() against the bind-time list walks
and dereference a freed struct uvcg_extension.
Hold opts->lock from the start of the XU string-
