the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusb: typec: ucsi: ccg: reject firmware images without a ':' record header\n\ndo_flash() locates the first .cyacd record with\n\n\tp = strnchr(fw->data, fw->size, ':');\n\twhile (p < eof) {\n\t\ts = strnchr(p + 1, eof - p - 1, ':');\n\t\t...\n\t}\n\nIf the firmware image contains no ':' byte,  strnchr() returns NULL.\nNULL compares less than the valid kernel pointer eof, so the loop body\nruns and strnchr() is called with p + 1 == (void *)1 and a length of\nroughly (unsigned long)eof, causing a wonderful crash.\n\nThe not_signed_fw fallthrough earlier in do_flash() and the chip-state\nbranches in ccg_fw_update_needed() allow an unsigned blob to reach this\nloop, so a root user who can place a crafted file under /lib/firmware\nand write the do_flash sysfs attribute can trigger the oops.\n\nBail out with -EINVAL when the initial strnchr() returns NULL."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/usb/typec/ucsi/ucsi_ccg.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"b41dfc033fe594e152648050e95b9489cd53e9e3","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"2f395ca1263bd181995eb829f5943a83a20db213","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"6526f8684f72391138353642af908803ba70795e","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"3f432b8203066c26770fe6ea591361f10021dd6b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"c4ee519b06389e59ba2d6aa722fcc4a02a8bbcbb","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"a38ed87818b2419090fb1a6338ddce6842b65dfa","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"c8460de584fe5415d212cfdd127d4db90835a450","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5c9ae5a87573d38cfc4c740aafda2fa6ce06e401","lessThan":"d7486952bf74e546ee3748fb14b2d07881fa6273","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/usb/typec/ucsi/ucsi_ccg.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.2","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.2","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.259","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.210","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.176","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.143","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.93","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.35","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0.12","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.259"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.210"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.176"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.143"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.93"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.35"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"7.0.12"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.2","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b41dfc033fe594e152648050e95b9489cd53e9e3"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2f395ca1263bd181995eb829f5943a83a20db213"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6526f8684f72391138353642af908803ba70795e"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3f432b8203066c26770fe6ea591361f10021dd6b"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c4ee519b06389e59ba2d6aa722fcc4a02a8bbcbb"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a38ed87818b2419090fb1a6338ddce6842b65dfa"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c8460de584fe5415d212cfdd127d4db90835a450"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d7486952bf74e546ee3748fb14b2d07881fa6273"}],"title":"usb:
