  "summary": "USB: dummy-hcd: Fix interrupt synchronization error",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nUSB: dummy-hcd: Fix interrupt synchronization error\n\nThis fixes an error in synchronization in the dummy-hcd driver.  The\nerror has a somewhat involved history.  The synchronization mechanism\nwas introduced by commit 7dbd8f4cabd9 (\"USB: dummy-hcd: Fix erroneous\nsynchronization change\"), which added an emulated \"interrupts enabled\"\nflag together with code emulating synchronize_irq() (it waits until\nall current handler callbacks have returned).\n\nBut the emulated interrupt-disable occurred too late, after the driver\ncontaining the handler callback routines had been told that it was\nunbound and no more callbacks would occur.  Commit 4a5d797a9f9c (\"usb:\ngadget: dummy_hcd: fix gpf in gadget_setup\") tried to fix this by\nmoving the synchronize_irq() emulation code from dummy_stop() to\ndummy_pullup(), which runs before the unbind callback.\n\nThere still were races, though, because the emulated interrupt-disable\nstill occurred too late.  It couldn't be moved to dummy_pullup(),\nbecause that routine can be called for reasons other than an impending\nunbind.  Therefore commits 7dc0c55e9f30 (\"USB: UDC core: Add\nudc_async_callbacks gadget op\") and 04145a03db9d (\"USB: UDC: Implement\nudc_async_callbacks in dummy-hcd\") added an API allowing the UDC core\nto tell dummy-hcd exactly when emulated interrupts and their callbacks\nshould be disabled.\n\nThat brings us to the current state of things, which is still wrong\nbecause the emulated synchronize_irq() occurs before the emulated\ninterrupt-disable!  That's no good, beause it means that more emulated\ninterrupts can occur after the synchronize_irq() emulation has run,\nleading to the possibility that a callback handler may be running when\nthe gadget driver is unbound.\n\nTo fix this, we have to move the synchronize_irq() emulation code yet\nagain, to the dummy_udc_async_callbacks() routine, which takes care of\nenabling and disabling emulated interrupt requests.  The\nsynchronization will now run immediately after emulated interrupts are\ndisabled, which is where it belongs.",

      "scenario": "AV:L - The vulnerable dummy-hcd path is reached through local USB gadget/host emulator interfaces such as raw-gadget, usbfs, configfs, or sysfs unbind paths. It is not network-reachable and dummy-hcd is an in-kernel emulator rather than a physically attached USB device.\nAC:L - Although this is a race, a local attacker can drive both sides by generating emulated USB activity while triggering gadget driver unbind, and the race can be retried. There are no special external conditions beyond attacker-controlled timing.\nPR:L - Exploitation requires local access to the configured dummy-hcd/gadget userspace interfaces, but the relevant raw-gadget and usbfs paths do not themselves impose a kernel capability check once accessible. When uncertain between root-only setup and normal local device access, the higher-severity PR:L is appropriate.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed after the attacker has local access to the relevant device interfaces. The attacker can trigger emulated USB callbacks and unbind locally.\nS:U - The impact remains within the same kernel security authority. This is a standard local kernel memory-safety/availability issue, not a VM escape or cross-authority boundary violation.\nC:H - The synchronization bug can allow asynchronous gadget callbacks to run after or during gadget driver unbind, leaving callback code operating on stale or cleared gadget-driver state. This is a use-after-unbind/use-after-free class condition, so kernel memory disclosure is a defensible worst-case impact.\nI:H - Callback execution against freed or invalid gadget-driver state can be leveraged as kernel memory corruption rather than merely a clean failure. Under the required higher-severity rule, a UAF-style kernel race supports potential arbitrary write or code execution.\nA:H - At minimum, the race can crash the kernel through NULL dereference or stale pointer use in gadget callbacks, as related dummy-hcd synchronization bugs have done. Kernel oops/panic is high availability impact."
