Title
usbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()
When a USB/IP client receives a RET_SUBMIT response,
usbip_pack_ret_submit() unconditionally overwrites
urb->number_of_packets from the network PDU. This value is
subsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and
usbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb->iso_frame_desc[], a flexible
array whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the
*original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT.
A malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response
to a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap
out-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to
urb->iso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region.
KASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640
Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69
The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40)
The server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already
validate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits
c6688ef9f297 ("usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle
malicious input") and b78d830f0049 ("usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden
CMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input"). The server side validates
against USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point.
On the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter
bound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets.
This mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against
transfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the
response value against the original allocation size.
Kelvin Mbogo's series ("usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in
usbip_recv_iso()", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves;
this patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its
source -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and
using the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global
USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit.
Fix this by checking rpdu->number_of_packets against
urb->number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the
overwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and
usbip_pad_iso() safely return early.

"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()\n\nWhen a USB/IP client receives a RET_SUBMIT response,\nusbip_pack_ret_submit() unconditionally overwrites\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets from the network PDU. This value is\nsubsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[], a flexible\narray whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the\n*original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT.\n\nA malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response\nto a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap\nout-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to\nurb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region.\n\nKASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5:\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640\n Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69\n\n The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of\n allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40)\n\nThe server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already\nvalidate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits\nc6688ef9f297 (\"usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle\nmalicious input\") and b78d830f0049 (\"usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden\nCMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input\"). The server side validates\nagainst USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point.\nOn the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter\nbound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets.\n\nThis mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against\ntransfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the\nresponse value against the original allocation size.\n\nKelvin Mbogo\u0027s series (\"usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in\nusbip_recv_iso()\", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves;\nthis patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its\nsource -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and\nusing the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global\nUSBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit.\n\nFix this by checking rpdu-\u003enumber_of_packets against\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the\noverwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() safely return early."

"value": "AV:N - The vulnerable client-side VHCI path processes USB/IP RET_SUBMIT responses received over a TCP socket from a remote USB/IP server. A malicious or compromised server can send the crafted network PDU; physical USB access is not required.\nAC:L - No race or hard-to-control condition is required; the server sees the client CMD_SUBMIT sequence number and can reply with an oversized number_of_packets. The attacker can reasonably present or service an isochronous USB device to reach the iso descriptor path.\nPR:N - The attacker needs no privileges on the vulnerable client system and USB/IP has no authentication gate in this kernel receive path. Once acting as the remote peer, the server-controlled RET_SUBMIT fields are accepted by vhci_rx.\nUI:N - In a reasonable high-impact deployment, the USB/IP client connection may already be established or automatically managed. Exploitation is then triggered solely by the remote server\u2019s response packet without further victim action.\nS:U - The corruption occurs in the client kernel and impacts resources governed by the same kernel security authority. This is not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other cross-scope boundary violation.\nC:H - The bug is heap memory corruption caused by attacker-controlled iso descriptors being written past the allocated urb-\u003eiso_frame_desc array. Such kernel memory corruption can be leveraged for information disclosure primitives, so confidentiality impact is high.\nI:H - usbip_recv_iso writes attacker-controlled descriptor fields out of bounds into adjacent kernel heap memory. This is a controlled kernel heap overwrite with plausible code execution or privilege escalation impact.\nA:H - KASAN confirmed a slab out-of-bounds write in the vhci_rx kernel thread. Even without full exploitation, a malicious server can crash or destabilize the kernel, causing high availability impact."

"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()\n\nWhen a USB/IP client receives a RET_SUBMIT response,\nusbip_pack_ret_submit() unconditionally overwrites\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets from the network PDU. This value is\nsubsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[], a flexible\narray whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the\n*original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT.\n\nA malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response\nto a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap\nout-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to\nurb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region.\n\nKASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5:\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640\n Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69\n\n The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of\n allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40)\n\nThe server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already\nvalidate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits\nc6688ef9f297 (\"usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle\nmalicious input\") and b78d830f0049 (\"usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden\nCMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input\"). The server side validates\nagainst USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point.\nOn the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter\nbound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets.\n\nThis mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against\ntransfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the\nresponse value against the original allocation size.\n\nKelvin Mbogo\u0027s series (\"usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in\nusbip_recv_iso()\", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves;\nthis patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its\nsource -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and\nusing the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global\nUSBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit.\n\nFix this by checking rpdu-\u003enumber_of_packets against\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the\noverwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() safely return early."

This value is\nsubsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[], a flexible\narray whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the\n*original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT.\n\nA malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response\nto a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap\nout-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to\nurb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region.\n\nKASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5:\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640\n Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69\n\n The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of\n allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40)\n\nThe server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already\nvalidate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits\nc6688ef9f297 (\"usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle\nmalicious input\") and b78d830f0049 (\"usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden\nCMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input\"). The server side validates\nagainst USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point.\nOn the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter\nbound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets.\n\nThis mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against\ntransfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the\nresponse value against the original allocation size.\n\nKelvin Mbogo\u0027s series (\"usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in\nusbip_recv_iso()\", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves;\nthis patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its\nsource -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and\nusing the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global\nUSBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit.\n\nFix this by checking rpdu-\u003enumber_of_packets against\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the\noverwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() safely return early."

The attacker can reasonably present or service an isochronous USB device to reach the iso descriptor path.\nPR:N - The attacker needs no privileges on the vulnerable client system and USB/IP has no authentication gate in this kernel receive path. Once acting as the remote peer, the server-controlled RET_SUBMIT fields are accepted by vhci_rx.\nUI:N - In a reasonable high-impact deployment, the USB/IP client connection may already be established or automatically managed. Exploitation is then triggered solely by the remote server\u2019s response packet without further victim action.\nS:U - The corruption occurs in the client kernel and impacts resources governed by the same kernel security authority. This is not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other cross-scope boundary violation.\nC:H - The bug is heap memory corruption caused by attacker-controlled iso descriptors being written past the allocated urb-\u003eiso_frame_desc array. Such kernel memory corruption can be leveraged for information disclosure primitives, so confidentiality impact is high.\nI:H - usbip_recv_iso writes attacker-controlled descriptor fields out of bounds into adjacent kernel heap memory.

Workarounds
ADP · redhat-SADP
To mitigate this vulnerability, prevent the `usbip` kernel module from loading by blacklisting it. Create a file named `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-usbip.conf` with the following content:
```
blacklist usbip
```
After creating the file, regenerate the initramfs and reboot the system for the changes to take effect. This may impact functionality that relies on USB/IP.

- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
