Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: FCP: Fix NULL pointer dereference in interface lookup
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 21:49:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260625134933.425785-1-r772577952@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87echuvo7x.wl-tiwai@suse.de>

A malformed USB device can provide a vendor-specific interface without
any endpoint descriptors. fcp_find_fc_interface() currently selects the
first vendor-specific interface and reads endpoint 0 from it, without
checking whether the interface actually has any endpoints.

When bNumEndpoints is zero, no endpoint array is allocated for the parsed
alternate setting, so get_endpoint(..., 0) yields an invalid endpoint
descriptor pointer. Dereferencing it through usb_endpoint_num() then
triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

Skip vendor-specific interfaces that do not have any endpoints.

Fixes: 46757a3e7d50 ("ALSA: FCP: Add Focusrite Control Protocol driver")
