In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): check actual_length before accessing header
The driver expects to receive a struct gs_host_frame in
gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback().
Use struct_group to describe the header of the struct gs_host_frame and
check that we have at least received the header before accessing any
members of it.
To resubmit the URB, do not dereference the pointer chain
"dev->parent->hf_size_rx" but use "parent->hf_size_rx" instead. Since
"urb->context" contains "parent", it is always defined, while "dev" is not
defined if the URB it too short.
