[PATCH] USB: serial: omninet: fix memory corruption with small endpoint

From: Johan Hovold

Date: Fri May 22 2026 - 11:10:02 EST


Make sure that the bulk-out buffers are at least as large as the
hardcoded transfer size to avoid user-controlled slab corruption should
a malicious device report a smaller endpoint max packet size than
expected.
