MEDIUM 6.1

DescriptionCVE.org

Issues in stm32 USB device driver (drivers/usb/device/usb_dc_stm32.c) can lead to an infinite while loop.

AnalysisAI

The STM32 USB device driver in Zephyr contains a logic error that can trigger an infinite loop, allowing a local attacker with user-level privileges to cause a denial of service by halting system responsiveness. No patch is currently available for this medium-severity defect that affects the USB subsystem's operational stability.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in the Zephyr Project RTOS USB device controller driver for STM32 microcontrollers (drivers/usb/device/usb_dc_stm32.c). The root cause is classified as CWE-835 (Infinite Loop), a control flow weakness where improper loop termination conditions allow execution to enter an unbounded loop. This driver handles USB device enumeration and communication on embedded ARM Cortex-M based STM32 platforms. The infinite loop likely occurs during USB endpoint handling, interrupt processing, or transfer completion routines where a condition check fails to properly exit loop logic, causing the CPU to spin indefinitely and render the embedded device unresponsive. CPE cpe:2.3:a:zephyrproject-rtos:zephyr indicates this affects the Zephyr Project RTOS (all versions through 4.3).
