While there\nwas a check for a specific 4th endpoint, since it can switch types\nbetween bulk and interrupt, other endpoints are trusted implicitly.\nSimilar warning is triggered in a couple of other syzbot issues [2].\n\nFix the issue by doing a comprehensive check of all endpoints\ntaking into account difference between high- and full-speed\nconfiguration.\n\n[1] Syzkaller report:\n...\nWARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 4721 at drivers/usb/core/urb.c:504 usb_submit_urb+0xed6/0x1880 drivers/usb/core/urb.c:504\n...\nCall Trace:\n <TASK>\n carl9170_usb_send_rx_irq_urb+0x273/0x340 drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/usb.c:504\n carl9170_usb_init_device drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/usb.c:939 [inline]\n carl9170_usb_firmware_finish drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/usb.c:999 [inline]\n carl9170_usb_firmware_step2+0x175/0x240 drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/usb.c:1028\n request_firmware_work_func+0x130/0x240 drivers/base/firmware_loader/main.c:1107\n process_one_work+0x9bf/0x1710 kernel/workqueue.c:2289\n worker_thread+0x669/0x1090 kernel/workqueue.c:2436\n kthread+0x2e8/0x3a0 kernel/kthread.c:376\n ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:308\n </TASK>\n\n[2] Related syzkaller crashes:","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/03ddc74bdfd71b84a55c9f2185d8787f258422cd","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0fa08a55201ab9be72bacb8ea93cf752d338184f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/265c3cda471c26e0f25d0c755da94e1eb15d7a0c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/62eb07923f3693d55b0c2d9a5a4f1ad72cb6b8fd","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6a9892bf24c906b4d6b587f8759ca38bff672582"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:52:00.836172422+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-38567","score":0.00254,"percentile":0.16854,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
