CVE-2026-63956 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: serial: cypress_m8: fix memory corruption with small endpoint Make sure that the interrupt-out endpoint max packet size is at least eight bytes to avoid user-controlled slab corruption or NULL-pointer dereference should a malicious device report a smaller size.
A memory corruption vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's USB serial Cypress M8 driver. This issue arises because the driver does not properly validate the maximum packet size of interrupt-out endpoints. If a malicious device reports a size smaller than eight bytes, it can lead to user-controlled memory corruption or a NULL-pointer dereference.
Users can update to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for updating the kernel can be found in the official Linux kernel documentation.
