Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) USB audio driver. A malicious Universal Serial Bus (USB) audio device could send a malformed Universal Audio Class 2 (UAC2) RANGE response. This could cause the system to repeatedly print error messages and potentially lead to a denial of service (DoS) by holding a mutex during the device probing process.
