How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 kernel-docs-html to version 6.12.0-160000.33.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-docs-html package and not the kernel-docs-html package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

usb: gadget: f_mass_storage: Fix potential integer overflow in check_command_size_in_blocks()

The check_command_size_in_blocks() function calculates the data size in bytes by left shifting common-&gt;data_size_from_cmnd by the block size (common-&gt;curlun-&gt;blkbits). However, it does not validate whether this shift operation will cause an integer overflow.

Initially, the block size is set up in fsg_lun_open() , and the common-&gt;data_size_from_cmnd is set up in do_scsi_command(). During initialization, there is no integer overflow check for the interaction between two variables.

So if a malicious USB host sends a SCSI READ or WRITE command requesting a large amount of data (common-&gt;data_size_from_cmnd), the left shift operation can wrap around. This results in a truncated data size, which can bypass boundary checks and potentially lead to memory corruption or out-of-bounds accesses.

Fix this by using the check_shl_overflow() macro to safely perform the shift and catch any overflows.
