{"cve":"CVE-2026-16147","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-14T20:16:39.207","modified":"2026-09-14T21:10:41.650","status":"Awaiting Analysis","description":"The ITE IT82xx2 USB device-controller driver (drivers/usb/udc/udc_it82xx2.c) mishandles multi-packet OUT transfers on non-control endpoints. In work_handler_out() the active transfer buffer is obtained with udc_buf_peek() (which does not dequeue it); when a full max-packet-size packet arrives but the buffer still has tailroom (the transfer is not yet complete), the pre-fix code both re-arms the endpoint to keep filling that same buf via work_handler_xfer_continue() and simultaneously hands the same, still-being-filled buffer to the upper stack with udc_submit_ep_event().\n\nBecause udc_submit_ep_event() transfers ownership of the buffer to the USB device stack (usbd_event_carrier() appends &buf->node to uds_ctx->ep_events, after which the class handler processes and net_buf_unref()s it), the driver continues to DMA subsequent host-controlled OUT packets into a buffer the upper stack may already have freed and recycled — a use-after-free write. In addition, since the buffer was never dequeued, the completing packet runs udc_buf_get() on the same object and submits it a second time, appending &buf->node to the event slist twice (singly-linked-list corruption) and causing a double net_buf_unref().\n\nThe IT82xx2 is a USB peripheral controller, so the untrusted USB host controls OUT-transfer packetization and can force this path against any non-control OUT endpoint whose queued buffer exceeds one packet — an ordinary bulk/interrupt pattern. The driver and USB device stack run in kernel context above the external host, giving the host a device-side kernel heap-corruption primitive: a reliable denial of service and, because the written bytes are attacker-controlled, plausible corruption of adjacent net_buf pool memory. The vector is physical (USB attach). The fix defers submission until the buffer is completely filled and lets xfer_work_handler() drive continuation, so each OUT buffer is submitted to the upper stack exactly once.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":6.8},"cwes":["CWE-416"],"references":["https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/commit/2abc3088a6598579cf322452801a13cb0ec57b0e","https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/security/advisories/GHSA-3q4g-7w6j-8qfp"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:53:43.293028046+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-16147","score":0.00258,"percentile":0.17517,"date":"2026-10-31"},"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).
