Subject: [PATCH 2/2] usb: usbfs: clamp the copied length to transfer_buffer_length
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2026 07:12:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <179328314074.648427.8187049654053191605@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <179328314073.648427.8311262845412746237@gmail.com>

copy_urb_data_to_user() uses urb->actual_length as the number of bytes to
copy to userspace for non-isochronous URBs.  The usbfs contract is that a
driver must not report more data than the transfer buffer holds, but
usbfs cannot rely on every HCD or device implementation to honor it; a
malicious usbip peer can already set actual_length beyond
transfer_buffer_length and trigger an out-of-bounds read:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in _copy_to_user+0x79/0xb0
  Read of size 88 at addr ...
  copy_urb_data_to_user+0x36f/0x480

Clamp the non-isochronous length to transfer_buffer_length before the
copy.  Normal URBs are unaffected; the isochronous path already uses
transfer_buffer_length.
