CVE-2017-16529 (published 2017-11-04T01:29Z)

The snd_usb_create_streams function in sound/usb/card.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.6 allows local users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted USB device.

msg: ALSA: usb-audio: Check out-of-bounds access by corrupted buffer descriptor

When a USB-audio device receives a maliciously adjusted or corrupted
buffer descriptor, the USB-audio driver may access an out-of-bounce
value at its parser.  This was detected by syzkaller, something like:

This patch adds the checks of out-of-bounce accesses at appropriate
places and bails out when it goes out of the given buffer.
