CVE-2026-31615: usb: gadget: renesas_usb3: validate endpoint index in standard request handlers

Published Apr 24, 2026

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: renesasusb3: validate endpoint index in standard request handlers

The GETSTATUS and SET/CLEARFEATURE handlers extract the endpoint number from the host-supplied wIndex without any sort of validation. Fix this up by validating the number of endpoints actually match up with the number the device has before attempting to dereference a pointer based on this math.

This is just like what was done in commit ee0d382feb44 ("usb: gadget: aspeedudc: validate endpoint index for ast udc") for the aspeed driver.
