The Nuvoton NuMaker HSUSBD USB device-controller driver (drivers/usb/udc/udcnumaker.c) armed the control Data IN stage unconditionally (base->CEPTXCNT = len in numakerhsusbdeptrigger). Because the HSUSBD hardware cannot disarm a control Data IN already armed for a previous transfer, a USB host that cancels an in-flight control transfer (timeout) and then issues a new SETUP packet can drive the driver out of sync: stale data may be transmitted in the new transfer and the control endpoint can become permanently stuck NAK'ing every subsequent control transfer.

A malicious or buggy host (physical/adjacent attacker driving the bus) can repeatedly cancel-and-re-SETUP to wedge the device's USB control endpoint, denying service to the device's USB function (the device stops enumerating/responding on the control pipe) until a USB reset or re-plug. The flaw is an availability-only denial of service; the FIFO copy loops (bounded by netbuf length and the hardware BUFFULL flag) and the netbuf lifecycle are independent of the arming desync, so there is no out-of-bounds access, use-after-free, or information leak.

The fix monitors the IN-token and new-SETUP events (kevent) and only arms control Data IN when an IN token is present and no new SETUP has arrived, cancelling the current transfer on a new SETUP. Affects boards using the Nuvoton NuMaker HSUSBD controller (CONFIGUDCNUMAKER with DTHASNUVOTONNUMAKERHSUSBDENABLED); shipped in v4.4.0.

Nuvoton - CWE-305: Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness

An attacker with write access to the SPI-Flash on an NPCM7xx BMC subsystem that uses the Nuvoton BootBlock

reference code can modify the u-boot image header on flash parsed by the BootBlock which could lead to arbitrary code

execution.

Remedy

Upgrade to v10.10.19

CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N

An attacker with physical access to Nuvoton Trusted Platform Module (NPCT75x 7.2.x before 7.2.2.0) could extract an Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) private key via a side-channel attack against ECDSA, because of an Observable Timing Discrepancy.

CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N

In Nuvoton NPCT75x TPM 1.2 firmware 7.4.0.0, a local authenticated malicious user with high privileges could potentially gain unauthorized access to TPM non-volatile memory. NOTE: Upgrading to firmware version 7.4.0.1 will mitigate against the vulnerability, but version 7.4.0.1 is not TCG or Common Criteria (CC) certified. Nuvoton recommends that users apply the NPCT75x TPM 1.2 firmware update.
