Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in the USB OTG handler in composite_setup() when handling a control transfer with an empty configuration list. A remote attacker can trigger the vulnerable code path to cause a denial of service.

The issue can occur during a teardown race on gadget unbind with a control transfer in flight, or when a driver sets is_otg before adding a configuration.
