From: Takashi Iwai tiwai@suse.de
commit 6815a0b444572527256f0d0efd8efe3ddede6018 upstream.
As syzkaller spotted, currently bcd2000 driver submits a URB with the fixed EP without checking whether it's actually available, which may result in a kernel warning like: usb 1-1: BOGUS urb xfer, pipe 1 != type 3 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1846 at drivers/usb/core/urb.c:449 usb_submit_urb+0xf8a/0x11d0 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 1846 Comm: kworker/0:2 Not tainted 4.14.0-rc2-42613-g1488251d1a98 #238 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Workqueue: usb_hub_wq hub_event Call Trace: bcd2000_init_device sound/usb/bcd2000/bcd2000.c:289 bcd2000_init_midi sound/usb/bcd2000/bcd2000.c:345 bcd2000_probe+0xe64/0x19e0 sound/usb/bcd2000/bcd2000.c:406 usb_probe_interface+0x35d/0x8e0 drivers/usb/core/driver.c:361 ....
This patch adds a sanity check of validity of EPs at the device initialization phase for avoiding the call with an invalid EP.
