In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: can: kvaser_usb_leaf: kvaser_usb_leaf_wait_cmd(): validate received command extents The wait and bulk receive paths walk variable-length commands from a USB buffer. A nonzero command shorter than CMD_HEADER_LEN can still be dispatched, and the wait path copies a matching command into a fixed caller-owned struct kvaser_cmd using the device-provided length. Reject nonzero commands that do not contain the fixed header or that extend beyond the current USB buffer item. In the wait path, also reject a matching command that exceeds the destination before copying it. A flaw was found in the Kvaser USB CAN driver (`kvaser_usb_leaf`) in the Linux kernel. This vulnerability occurs due to insufficient validation of received command lengths from a USB buffer. A malicious or malformed command shorter than the expected header length, or one that exceeds the destination buffer, can be processed. This could lead to a buffer overflow, potentially causing a denial of service or other system instability.
