NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-syms-rt package and not the kernel-syms-rt package as distributed by SLES.

An issue was discovered in drivers/usb/gadget/composite.c in the Linux kernel before 5.16.10. The USB Gadget subsystem lacks certain validation of interface OS descriptor requests (ones with a large array index and ones associated with NULL function pointer retrieval). Memory corruption might occur.
