Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use After Free in the usbh_device_disconnect process. An attacker can cause system crashes and memory corruption by triggering a second device-removed event after a root device disconnect, leading to operations on a freed memory object. This is only exploitable if the experimental USB host stack is enabled and the attacker has physical USB access or can use a rogue device to manipulate USB connection events.
