Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: image: mdc800: kill download URB on timeout
mdc800_device_read() submits download_urb and waits for completion.
If the timeout fires and the device has not responded, the function
returns without killing the URB, leaving it active.
A subsequent read() resubmits the same URB while it is still
in-flight, triggering the WARN in usb_submit_urb():
"URB submitted while active"
Check the return value of wait_event_timeout() and kill the URB if
it indicates timeout, ensuring the URB is complete before its status
is inspected or the URB is resubmitted.
