Published: June 25, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU135418
CSH Severity: Medium
CVSS v4: 5.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-52964
CWE-ID: CWE-125
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows an attacker with physical access to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in the USB MIDI 2.0 endpoint descriptor parser when parsing a malformed USB device descriptor. An attacker with physical access can connect a specially crafted USB device to cause a denial of service.
