Title
usbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() When a USB/IP client receives a RET_SUBMIT response, usbip_pack_ret_submit() unconditionally overwrites urb->number_of_packets from the network PDU. This value is subsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and usbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb->iso_frame_desc[], a flexible array whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the *original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT. A malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response to a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap out-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to urb->iso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region. KASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640 Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69 The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40) The server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already validate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits c6688ef9f297 ("usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input") and b78d830f0049 ("usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input"). The server side validates against USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point. On the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter bound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets. This mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against transfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the response value against the original allocation size. Kelvin Mbogo's series ("usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in usbip_recv_iso()", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves; this patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its source -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and using the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit. Fix this by checking rpdu->number_of_packets against urb->number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and usbip_pad_iso() safely return early.

          "value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()\n\nWhen a USB/IP client receives a RET_SUBMIT response,\nusbip_pack_ret_submit() unconditionally overwrites\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets from the network PDU. This value is\nsubsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[], a flexible\narray whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the\n*original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT.\n\nA malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response\nto a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap\nout-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to\nurb-\u003eiso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region.\n\nKASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640\n  Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69\n\n  The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of\n   allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40)\n\nThe server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already\nvalidate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits\nc6688ef9f297 (\"usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle\nmalicious input\") and b78d830f0049 (\"usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden\nCMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input\"). The server side validates\nagainst USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point.\nOn the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter\nbound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets.\n\nThis mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against\ntransfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the\nresponse value against the original allocation size.\n\nKelvin Mbogo\u0027s series (\"usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in\nusbip_recv_iso()\", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves;\nthis patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its\nsource -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and\nusing the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global\nUSBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit.\n\nFix this by checking rpdu-\u003enumber_of_packets against\nurb-\u003enumber_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the\noverwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and\nusbip_pad_iso() safely return early."
