CVE-2022-36063

USBX Host CDC ECM integer underflow with buffer overflow

7.6 High

CVE-2022-36063 is a high vulnerability (CVSS 7.6) in Azure-rtos Usbx, published October 10, 2022. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 2.19%, the 82nd percentile. No source names a fixed version.

Azure RTOS USBx is a USB host, device, and on-the-go (OTG) embedded stack, fully integrated with Azure RTOS ThreadX and available for all Azure RTOS ThreadX–supported processors. Azure RTOS USBX implementation of host support for USB CDC ECM includes an integer underflow and a buffer overflow in the _ux_host_class_cdc_ecm_mac_address_get function which may be potentially exploited to achieve remote code execution or denial of service. Setting mac address string descriptor length to a 0 or 1 allows an attacker to introduce an integer underflow followed (string_length) by a buffer overflow of the cdc_ecm -> ux_host_class_cdc_ecm_node_id array. This may allow one to redirect the code execution flow or introduce a denial of service. The fix has been included in USBX release 6.1.12. Improved mac address string descriptor length validation to check for unexpectedly small values may be used as a workaround.
