What to do
AI-suggested
A fix has been implemented in the Linux kernel to free the staged isochronous schedule on failed USB request submissions and clear the associated pointer. Users should update to a Linux kernel version that includes this fix. Since no specific patched versions are provided, check the official Linux kernel advisories or source repositories for the commit addressing CVE-2026-64348 to apply the official fix. No other mitigation actions are indicated.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: free iso schedules on failed submit EHCI and FOTG210 isochronous submits build an ehci_iso_sched before linking the URB to the endpoint queue, and keep the staged schedule in urb->hcpriv until iso_stream_schedule() and the link helpers consume it. If the controller is no longer accessible, or usb_hcd_link_urb_to_ep() fails, submit jumps to done_not_linked before that handoff happens and leaks the staged schedule still attached to urb->hcpriv. Free the staged schedule from done_not_linked when submit fails before the URB is linked and clear urb->hcpriv after the free. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1.1. An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have an EHCI host controller with a USB isochronous device to test with, no runtime testing was able to be performed.
