CVE-2026-64240: media: rc: igorplugusb: fix control request setup packet

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: 0.11% (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 060fca8e098387f949e4eedaf215d952e477ac12, 0d880d2db9856e94127ab09331363bef59f98005, 171022c7d594c133a45f92357a2a91475edabe20.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 060fca8e098387f949e4eedaf215d952e477ac12, 0d880d2db9856e94127ab09331363bef59f98005, 171022c7d594c133a45f92357a2a91475edabe20 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: rc: igorplugusb: fix control request setup packet Commit eac69475b01f ("media: rc: igorplugusb: heed coherency rules") changed the control request storage from an embedded struct to an allocated pointer so it can obey DMA coherency rules. However, the driver still passes &ir->request to usb_fill_control_urb(). That points the URB setup packet at the pointer field itself rather than at the allocated struct usb_ctrlrequest. USB core then interprets pointer bytes as the setup packet. This can produce an invalid bRequestType and trigger the control direction warning reported by syzbot: usb 2-1: BOGUS control dir, pipe 80003580 doesn't match bRequestType 0 Pass ir->request itself as the setup packet.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
