Doc Text:	A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xHCI (eXtensible Host Controller Interface) Tegra driver. When USB virtualization is enabled and USB2 ports are shared across virtual functions, an incorrect port number check can lead to invalid memory access. A local attacker with high privileges could exploit this vulnerability to cause a system crash (Denial of Service) or potentially disclose sensitive information.	Story Points:	---

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-10-29 01:02:14 UTC

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

xhci: tegra: fix checked USB2 port number

If USB virtualizatoin is enabled, USB2 ports are shared between all
Virtual Functions. The USB2 port number owned by an USB2 root hub in
a Virtual Function may be less than total USB2 phy number supported
by the Tegra XUSB controller.

Using total USB2 phy number as port number to check all PORTSC values
would cause invalid memory access.
