ALSA: caiaq: fix stack out-of-bounds read in init_card

2026-04-18T08:31:11+00:00

commit 45424e871abf2a152e247a9cff78359f18dd95c0 upstream. The loop creates a whitespace-stripped copy of the card shortname where `len < sizeof(card->id)` is used for the bounds check. Since sizeof(card->id) is 16 and the local id buffer is also 16 bytes, writing 16 non-space characters fills the entire buffer, overwriting the terminating nullbyte. When this non-null-terminated string is later passed to snd_card_set_id() -> copy_valid_id_string(), the function scans forward with `while (*nid && ...)` and reads past the end of the stack buffer, reading the contents of the stack. A USB device with a product name containing many non-ASCII, non-space characters (e.g. multibyte UTF-8) will reliably trigger this as follows: BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in copy_valid_id_string sound/core/init.c:696 [inline] BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in snd_card_set_id_no_lock+0x698/0x74c sound/core/init.c:718 The off-by-one has been present since commit bafeee5b1f8d ("ALSA: snd_usb_caiaq: give better shortname") from June 2009 (v2.6.31-rc1), which first introduced this whitespace-stripping loop. The original code never accounted for the null terminator when bounding the copy. Fix this by changing the loop bound to `sizeof(card->id) - 1`, ensuring at least one byte remains as the null terminator.

ALSA: usb-audio: Use correct version for UAC3 header validation

2026-04-18T08:30:51+00:00

commit 54f9d645a5453d0bfece0c465d34aaf072ea99fa upstream. The entry of the validators table for UAC3 AC header descriptor is defined with the wrong protocol version UAC_VERSION_2, while it should have been UAC_VERSION_3. This results in the validator never matching for actual UAC3 devices (protocol == UAC_VERSION_3), causing their header descriptors to bypass validation entirely. A malicious USB device presenting a truncated UAC3 header could exploit this to cause out-of-bounds reads when the driver later accesses unvalidated descriptor fields. The bug was introduced in the same commit as the recently fixed UAC3 feature unit sub-type typo, and appears to be from the same copy-paste error when the UAC3 section was created from the UAC2 section.

ALSA: usb-audio: Cap the packet size pre-calculations

2026-04-18T08:30:49+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7fe8dec3f628e9779f1631576f8e693370050348 ] We calculate the possible packet sizes beforehand for adaptive and synchronous endpoints, but we didn't take care of the max frame size for those pre-calculated values. When a device or a bus limits the packet size, a high sample rate or a high number of channels may lead to the packet sizes that are larger than the given limit, which results in an error from the USB core at submitting URBs. As a simple workaround, just add the sanity checks of pre-calculated packet sizes to have the upper boundary of ep->maxframesize.

ALSA: usb-audio: Fix use-after-free in snd_usb_mixer_free()

2026-02-06T15:40:07+00:00

commit 930e69757b74c3ae083b0c3c7419bfe7f0edc7b2 upstream. When snd_usb_create_mixer() fails, snd_usb_mixer_free() frees mixer->id_elems but the controls already added to the card still reference the freed memory. Later when snd_card_register() runs, the OSS mixer layer calls their callbacks and hits a use-after-free read.

ALSA: usb-mixer: us16x08: validate meter packet indices

2026-01-19T12:11:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5526c1c6ba1d0913c7dfcbbd6fe1744ea7c55f1e ] get_meter_levels_from_urb() parses the 64-byte meter packets sent by the device and fills the per-channel arrays meter_level[], comp_level[] and master_level[] in struct snd_us16x08_meter_store. Currently the function derives the channel index directly from the meter packet (MUB2(meter_urb, s) - 1) and uses it to index those arrays without validating the range. If the packet contains a negative or out-of-range channel number, the driver may write past the end of these arrays. Introduce a local channel variable and validate it before updating the arrays. We reject negative indices, limit meter_level[] and comp_level[] to SND_US16X08_MAX_CHANNELS, and guard master_level[] updates with ARRAY_SIZE(master_level).

ALSA: usb-audio: Fix potential overflow of PCM transfer buffer

2025-12-06T21:08:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 05a1fc5efdd8560f34a3af39c9cf1e1526cc3ddf ] The PCM stream data in USB-audio driver is transferred over USB URB packet buffers, and each packet size is determined dynamically. The packet sizes are limited by some factors such as wMaxPacketSize USB descriptor. OTOH, in the current code, the actually used packet sizes are determined only by the rate and the PPS, which may be bigger than the size limit above. This results in a buffer overflow, as reported by syzbot. Basically when the limit is smaller than the calculated packet size, it implies that something is wrong, most likely a weird USB descriptor. So the best option would be just to return an error at the parameter setup time before doing any further operations. This patch introduces such a sanity check, and returns -EINVAL when the packet size is greater than maxpacksize. The comparison with ep->packsize[1] alone should suffice since it's always equal or greater than ep->packsize[0].

ALSA: usb-audio: Fix NULL pointer dereference in snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd

2025-12-06T21:08:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 632108ec072ad64c8c83db6e16a7efee29ebfb74 ] In snd_usb_create_streams(), for UAC version 3 devices, the Interface Association Descriptor (IAD) is retrieved via usb_ifnum_to_if(). If this call fails, a fallback routine attempts to obtain the IAD from the next interface and sets a BADD profile. However, snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd() assumes that the IAD retrieved from usb_ifnum_to_if() is always valid, without performing a NULL check. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference when usb_ifnum_to_if() fails to find the interface descriptor. This patch adds a NULL pointer check after calling usb_ifnum_to_if() in snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd() to prevent the dereference. This issue was discovered by syzkaller, which triggered the bug by sending a crafted USB device descriptor.
