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

ALSA: caiaq: fix out-of-bounds read in the Traktor Kontrol S4 input parser

sndusbcaiaqtks4dispatch() decodes the Traktor Kontrol S4 input stream in fixed 16-byte (TKS4MSGBLOCKSIZE) message blocks. On every iteration it advances buf and subtracts the block size while looping on "while (len)".

len is urb->actuallength. That value is supplied by the device and is not guaranteed to be a multiple of 16. When a final short block leaves len between 1 and 15, the loop runs once more, reads up to buf[15], and then does "len -= TKS4MSGBLOCKSIZE". As len is unsigned this underflows to a huge value. The loop then keeps iterating and walking buf far past the end of the 512-byte ep4in_buf, reading out of bounds until a bogus block id happens to be hit.

Iterate only while a full message block is available. This stops the unsigned underflow and silently drops any trailing partial block, which carries no complete control value anyway.

The sibling endpoint-4 parsers are not affected. The Traktor Kontrol X1 and Maschine arms in sndusbcaiaqep4replydispatch() floor urb->actuallength before dispatching.
