kernel: USB: serial: io_ti: fix heap overflow in get_manuf_info()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ioti USB serial driver. A malicious USB device, when plugged into a host running this driver, can exploit a heap overflow vulnerability in the getmanufinfo function. This occurs because the driver does not properly validate the size of data read from the...

kernel: USB: serial: mxuport: fix memory corruption with small endpoint

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB serial mxuport driver. A malicious Universal Serial Bus USB device could exploit this vulnerability by reporting a bulk-out endpoint maximum packet size smaller than eight bytes. This can lead to user-controlled slab corruption, potentially allowing an...

This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - Network file systems library; - Stream parser; - ARM64 architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - RISC-V architecture;...

Astra Linux – vulnerability in linux-6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: serial: option: fix slab OOB read in interrupt URB callback The interrupt URB buffer is allocated in setupportinterruptin based on the endpoint’s wMaxPacketSize: buffersize = usbendpointmaxpepd; port-interruptinbuffer =...

CVE-2026-80827

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB serial option driver. A malicious USB device could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted short data packet. This could lead to an out-of-bounds read in memory, potentially allowing an attacker to access sensitive information or cause ...

CVE-2026-98772

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB serial subsystem. This flaw may result in a Denial of Service DoS due to a use-after-free vulnerability. During multiport device disconnection, a race condition allows background completion handlers to access port driver data after it has already been...

CVE-2026-98697

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB serial subsystem. A race condition during USB serial driver deregistration can result in a kernel memory leak. A local user with permissions to modify driver attributes can trigger this issue by writing to the dynamic identifier interface while the drive...

CVE-2026-98695

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB serial subsystem. A local user could cause a Denial of Service DoS due to a race condition between input/output control ioctl operations and device disconnection. If a USB serial device is disconnected during an active operation, the driver may attempt t...

CVE-2026-98696

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB serial subsystem. A local user with administrative privileges could exploit this flaw to cause a Denial of Service DoS or memory corruption. During the unloading of a USB serial driver module, drivers are deregistered in an incorrect sequence, allowing...

SUSE CVE-2026-98772

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: serial: fix port tear down use-after-free Some drivers for multiport devices access port driver data from completion handlers of shared URBs submitted at attach or first open and stopped at disconnect or last close,...

kernel: USB: serial: cypress_m8: fix memory corruption with small endpoint

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's cypressm8 USB serial driver. A malicious Universal Serial Bus USB device could report a packet size smaller than eight bytes for the interrupt-out endpoint. This can lead to memory corruption, specifically user-controlled slab corruption or a NULL-pointer...
