Summary
In the Linux kernel, the kalmia USB driver lacks validation of USB endpoints. A malicious USB device without the expected endpoints can cause a kernel crash when the driver blindly accesses them.
Risk Assessment
The organization faces the risk of system crashes (kernel panic) upon connecting a crafted USB device, potentially leading to service disruption or data loss.
Recommendation
Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix validating USB endpoints in the kalmia driver.
Original NVD description (English source)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: usb: kalmia: validate USB endpoints The kalmia driver should validate that the device it is probing has the proper number and types of USB endpoints it is expecting before it binds to it. If a malicious device were to not have the same urbs the driver will crash later on when it blindly accesses these endpoints.
