      <title>CVE-2025-40004 — net/9p: Fix buffer overflow in USB transport layer</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-40004</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net/9p: Fix buffer overflow in USB transport layer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the USB 9pfs transport layer
where inconsistent size validation between packet header parsing and
actual data copying allows a malicious USB host to overflow heap buffers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The issue occurs because:
- usb9pfs_rx_header() validates only the declared size in packet header
- usb9pfs_rx_complete() uses req-&amp;gt;actual (actual received bytes) for
memcpy&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This allows an attacker to craft packets with small declared size
(bypassing validation) but large actual payload (triggering overflow
in memcpy).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add validation in usb9pfs_rx_complete() to ensure req-&amp;gt;actual does not
exceed the buffer capacity before copying data.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
