      <title>CVE-2024-26716 — usb: core: Prevent null pointer dereference in update_port_device_state</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-26716</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;usb: core: Prevent null pointer dereference in update_port_device_state&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently, the function update_port_device_state gets the usb_hub from
udev-&amp;gt;parent by calling usb_hub_to_struct_hub.
However, in case the actconfig or the maxchild is 0, the usb_hub would
be NULL and upon further accessing to get port_dev would result in null
pointer dereference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix this by introducing an if check after the usb_hub is populated.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
