[PATCH] can: esd_usb: add endpoint type validation

From: Ziyi Guo

Date: Mon Feb 09 2026 - 22:59:42 EST


esd_usb_probe() constructs bulk pipes for two endpoints without
verifying their transfer types:

- usb_rcvbulkpipe(dev->udev, 1) for RX (version reply, async RX data)
- usb_sndbulkpipe(dev->udev, 2) for TX (version query, CAN frames)

A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types
that differ from what the driver assumes, triggering the WARNING in
usb_submit_urb().

Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() before the first bulk transfer to verify
endpoint types, rejecting devices with mismatched descriptors at probe
time.

Similar to
- commit 90b7f2961798 ("net: usb: rtl8150: enable basic endpoint checking")
which established the usb_check_bulk_endpoints() validation pattern.

Fixes: 96d8e90382dc ("can: Add driver for esd CAN-USB/2 device")
