[PATCH net] net: usb: kaweth: validate USB endpoints
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 23 2026 - 08:02:07 EST
The kaweth driver should validate that the device it is probing has the
proper number and types of USB endpoints it is expecting before it binds
to it. If a malicious device were to not have the same urbs the driver
will crash later on when it blindly accesses these endpoints.
