  - USB: serial: io_edgeport: cap received transmit credits The interrupt-status packet reports transmit
    credits returned by the device. edge_interrupt_callback() adds the 16-bit value to txCredits without
    checking maxTxCredits. edge_write() uses txCredits minus the software FIFO count as the amount of data
    that fits. Since the FIFO is allocated with maxTxCredits bytes, txCredits exceeding maxTxCredits can cause
    OOB write in ring buffer. Cap accumulated credits at maxTxCredits. Conforming devices should never hit the
    cap. (CVE-2026-68365)
