In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: ims-pcu - fix heap-buffer-overflow in imspcuprocess_data()
The ims_pcu_process_data() processes incoming URB data byte by byte.
However, it fails to check if the read_pos index exceeds
IMSPCUBUF_SIZE.
If a malicious USB device sends a packet larger than IMSPCUBUF_SIZE,
read_pos will increment indefinitely. Moreover, since read_pos is
located immediately after read_buf, the attacker can overwrite
read_pos itself to arbitrarily control the index.
This manipulated read_pos is subsequently used in
ims_pcu_handle_response() to copy data into cmd_buf, leading to a
heap buffer overflow.
Specifically, an attacker can overwrite the cmd_done.wait.head located
at offset 136 relative to cmd_buf in the ims_pcu_handle_response().
Consequently, when the driver calls complete(&pcu->cmd_done), it
triggers a control flow hijack by using the manipulated pointer.
Fix this by adding a bounds check for read_pos before writing to
read_buf. If the packet is too long, discard it, log a warning,
and reset the parser state.
[dtor: factor out resetting packet state, reset checksum as well]
