CVE-2026-97930: ALSA: usbusx2y: fix in04_last array size mismatch with in04_buf

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)

  • 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: 0.20% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 229cab526580f82839ae8e4e379753c8cf16952e, 381495b5b3da12d714e53d9d12d955b13fe26eac, 861111a14740e12c36d363e9830f8daa734279c9; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.158.1-1.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 229cab526580f82839ae8e4e379753c8cf16952e, 381495b5b3da12d714e53d9d12d955b13fe26eac, 861111a14740e12c36d363e9830f8daa734279c9; azl3 kernel 6.6.157.1-1 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.158.1-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usbusx2y: fix in04_last array size mismatch with in04_buf The in04_last array in struct usx2ydev is declared as char[24], but in04_buf is allocated as sizeof(struct us428_ctls) which is 21 bytes. In i_usx2y_in04_int(), when ctl_snapshot_last == -2 (initialization path): memcpy(usx2y->in04_last, usx2y->in04_buf, sizeof(usx2y->in04_last)); This copies 24 bytes from a 21-byte slab allocation, reading 3 bytes past the end of the source object. Introduce a USX2Y_IN04_SIZE constant defined as sizeof(struct us428_ctls) and use it consistently for the in04_last array, the in04_buf allocation, the URB transfer length, and the comparison loop, replacing the bare 24 and 21 literals throughout.
