Service interruption via cleared active event buffer
Published Sep 13, 2024 · Updated May 11, 2026
Denial of service in affected Linux kernel DWC3 USB core builds allows local users to trigger SMMU faults during runtime suspend. A dwc3_gadget_suspend timeout can leave the controller active, but dwc3_core_exit clears its event-buffer address without checking controller status. The flaw requires an Exynos platform using the DWC3 controller and a runtime-suspend path, and resulting invalid DMA accesses can interrupt the system.
