Description

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.20.2. An out-of-bounds access exists in the function build_audio_procunit in the file sound/usb/mixer.c.
An out-of-bounds flaw was found in the ALSA usb-audio subsystem in the Linux kernel. An array boundary check was needed to restrict the array size; failing this can cause an out-of-bound access problem. Data confidentiality and integrity, as well as system availability, are all threats with this vulnerability.
