CVE-2025-37811: usb: chipidea: ci_hdrc_imx: fix usbmisc handling
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.19% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 0ee460498ced49196149197c9f6d29a10e5e0798, 121e9f80ea5478bca3a8f3f26593fd66f87da649, 2aa87bd825377f5073b76701780a902cd0fc725a.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 0ee460498ced49196149197c9f6d29a10e5e0798, 121e9f80ea5478bca3a8f3f26593fd66f87da649, 2aa87bd825377f5073b76701780a902cd0fc725a or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: chipidea: ci_hdrc_imx: fix usbmisc handling usbmisc is an optional device property so it is totally valid for the corresponding data->usbmisc_data to have a NULL value. Check that before dereferencing the pointer. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace static analysis tool.
