A patch is available and has been included in updated Linux kernel packages distributed by Ubuntu. Users should apply the latest kernel updates to remediate this vulnerability. Since the vendor has provided an official fix, upgrading to the patched kernel versions is the recommended mitigation.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's USB serial driver for Belkin devices (belkin_sa) involved improper validation of interrupt status length. This flaw could lead to out-of-bounds or stale status-byte reads when processing short interrupt packets. The issue was identified via a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds report and affects multiple Linux kernel versions prior to 7.0.0-28.28 and related builds. A patch addressing this vulnerability is available and included in updated Linux kernel packages distributed by Ubuntu.
