A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's USB core host controller driver (hcd) involving possible deadlock in root hub control transfers has been resolved. The issue arises from memory allocations in the SCSI error handler that must not trigger IO, as resetting a device involves control transfers to the root hub. The problem has existed since the storage driver was merged and affects specific Linux kernel versions.
