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.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

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

will crash later on when it blindly accesses these endpoints.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's pegasus driver. A malicious USB device can exploit this vulnerability by not presenting the expected number and types of USB endpoints. This lack of proper validation causes the driver to blindly access uninitialized endpoints, leading to a system crash and a Denial of Service (DoS).
