{"id":"OESA-2026-2742","summary":"libusbx security update","details":"libusb is a library for USB device access from Linux, macOS, Windows, OpenBSD/NetBSD and Haiku userspace. It is written in C (Haiku backend in C++) and licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License version 2.1 or, at your option, any later version (see COPYING).\r\n\r\nSecurity Fix(es):\n\nlibusb before version 1.0.30 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability that allows attackers to crash applications by supplying a malformed USB configuration descriptor where an interface claims bNumEndpoints greater than zero but is followed by a class-specific descriptor whose bLength exceeds the remaining buffer size, causing parse_interface() to return early without allocating the endpoint array. Attackers can exploit this flaw through libusb_get_active_config_descriptor or libusb_get_config_descriptor by providing crafted descriptors via virtualized USB passthrough, file-based descriptor parsing, or network sources, causing any application iterating over endpoints to dereference a NULL endpoint pointer and crash.(CVE-2026-23679)","modified":"2026-08-18T01:21:10.943754394Z","published":"2026-06-24T11:11:40Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-23679"],"database_specific":{"severity":"Medium"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.openeuler.org/zh/security/security-bulletins/detail/?id=openEuler-SA-2026-2742"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-23679"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"libusbx","ecosystem":"openEuler:24.03-LTS-SP1","purl":"pkg:rpm/openEuler/libusbx&distro=openEuler-24.03-LTS-SP1"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"aarch64":["libusbx-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm","libusbx-debuginfo-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm","libusbx-debugsource-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm","libusbx-devel-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.aarch64.rpm"],"src":["libusbx-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.src.rpm"],"x86_64":["libusbx-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm","libusbx-debuginfo-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm","libusbx-debugsource-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm","libusbx-devel-1.0.26-3.oe2403sp1.x86_64.rpm"]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://repo.openeuler.org/security/data/osv/OESA-2026-2742.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
