libusb before version 1.0.30 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability that allows attackers to crash applications by supplying a malformed USB configuration descriptor where an interface claims bNumEndpoints greater than zero but is followed by a class-specific descriptor whose bLength exceeds the remaining buffer size, causing parse_interface() to return early without allocating the endpoint array. Attackers can exploit this flaw through libusb_get_active_config_descriptor or libusb_get_config_descriptor by providing crafted descriptors via virtualized USB passthrough, file-based descriptor parsing, or network sources, causing any application iterating over endpoints to dereference a NULL endpoint pointer and crash.
AnalysisAI
NULL pointer dereference in libusb's USB descriptor parser allows any attacker who can supply a crafted configuration descriptor to crash any application that uses libusb for USB device enumeration. Affected versions are all libusb releases before 1.0.30; the flaw resides in parse_interface() within descriptor.c and is reachable through the public APIs libusb_get_active_config_descriptor and libusb_get_config_descriptor. …
