CVE-2026-64327: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 5.5. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_fs: Initialize epfile->in early to fix endpoint direction checks When parsing endpoint descriptors, ffs_data_got_descs() generates the eps_addrmap which contains the endpoint direction. However, epfile->in was previously only populated in ffs_func_eps_enable() which executes upon USB host connection. As a result, early userspace ioctls like FUNCTIONFS_DMABUF_ATTACH that run before the host connects would see epfile->in as 0, leading to incorrect DMA directions. By moving the initialization to ffs_epfiles_create(), epfile->in is accurate before userspace opens the endpoint files.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 6.9, before 6.12.96 (fixed in 6.12.96); from 6.13, before 6.18.39 (fixed in 6.18.39); from 6.19, before 7.1.4 (fixed in 7.1.4); version 7.2 only
