CVE-2025-38555

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget : fix use-after-free in composite_dev_cleanup() 1. In func configfs_composite_bind() -> composite_os_desc_req_prepare(): if kmalloc fails, the pointer cdev->os_desc_req will be freed but not set to NULL. Then it will return a failure to the upper-level function. 2. in func configfs_composite_bind() -> composite_dev_cleanup(): it will checks whether cdev->os_desc_req is NULL. If it is not NULL, it will attempt to use it.This will lead to a use-after-free issue.

  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: usb: gadget: corrección del problema de use-after-free en composite_dev_cleanup(). 1. En la función configfs_composite_bind() -> composite_os_desc_req_prepare(): si kmalloc falla, el puntero cdev->os_desc_req se liberará, pero no se establecerá en NULL. En ese caso, devolverá un error a la función de nivel superior. 2. En la función configfs_composite_bind() -> composite_dev_cleanup(): comprobará si cdev->os_desc_req es NULL. Si no lo es, intentará usarlo. Esto provocará un problema de use-after-free.
