If submission\n  fails, the callback never runs and the memory is leaked.\n\n  Fix this by freeing both the URB and the request structure in the error\n  path when usb_submit_urb() fails.","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":["CWE-401"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/12cab1191d9890097171156d06bfa8d31f1e39c8","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/151403e903840c9cf06754097b6732c14f26c532","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2f966186b99550e3c665dbfb87b8314e30acea02","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4bd4ea3eb326608ffc296db12c105f92dc2f2190","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6492ad6439ff1a479fc94dc6052df3628faed8b6"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:43:09.190223697+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-71154","score":0.00142,"percentile":0.03477,"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).
