In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Input: ims-pcu - fix heap-buffer-overflow in ims_pcu_process_data()

The ims_pcu_process_data() processes incoming URB data byte by byte.
However, it fails to check if the read_pos index exceeds
IMS_PCU_BUF_SIZE.

If a malicious USB device sends a packet larger than IMS_PCU_BUF_SIZE,
read_pos will increment indefinitely. Moreover, since read_pos is
located immediately after read_buf, the attacker can overwrite
read_pos itself to arbitrarily control the index.

This manipulated read_pos is subsequently used in
ims_pcu_handle_response() to copy data into cmd_buf, leading to a
heap buffer overflow.

Specifically, an attacker can overwrite the cmd_done.wait.head located
at offset 136 relative to cmd_buf in the ims_pcu_handle_response().
Consequently, when the driver calls complete(&pcu->cmd_done), it
triggers a control flow hijack by using the manipulated pointer.

Fix this by adding a bounds check for read_pos before writing to
read_buf. If the packet is too long, discard it, log a warning,
and reset the parser state.
