CVE-2026-23290 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: usb: pegasus: validate USB endpoints The pegasus 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.
A vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel's pegasus USB driver, which fails to properly validate the number and types of USB endpoints of devices it probes. This issue can lead to a driver crash when it blindly accesses these endpoints, particularly if a malicious device does not present the expected endpoints.
Users can update to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been addressed. Instructions for updating the kernel can be found in the official Linux documentation.
