It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-43156 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43156/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43156/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-43156","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43156/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-43156","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-43156","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43156","GHSA-4pc7-q2m2-j888","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-43156","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2026-43156","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-43156","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-43156"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel USB driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A malicious USB device can cause a denial of service in the Linux kernel pegasus driver by presenting mismatched endpoint descriptors.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: usb: pegasus: enable basic endpoint checking\n\npegasus_probe() fills URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without\nverifying the endpoint descriptors:\n\n  - usb_rcvbulkpipe(dev, 1) for RX data\n  - usb_sndbulkpipe(dev, 2) for TX data\n  - usb_rcvintpipe(dev, 3)  for status interrupts\n\nA malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types\nthat differ from what the driver assumes.\n\nAdd a pegasus_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic\nconstants throughout.
