CVE-2026-64487 — ALSA: caiaq: fix out-of-bounds read in the Traktor Kontrol S4 input parser

Affected: Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ALSA: caiaq: fix out-of-bounds read in the Traktor Kontrol S4 input parser

snd_usb_caiaq_tks4_dispatch() decodes the Traktor Kontrol S4 input stream in fixed 16-byte (TKS4_MSGBLOCK_SIZE) message blocks. On every iteration it advances buf and subtracts the block size while looping on "while (len)".

len is urb->actual_length. That value is supplied by the device and is not guaranteed to be a multiple of 16. When a final short block leaves len between 1 and 15, the loop runs once more, reads up to buf[15], and then does "len -= TKS4_MSGBLOCK_SIZE". As len is unsigned this underflows to a huge value. The loop then keeps iterating and walking buf far past the end of the 512-byte ep4_in_buf, reading out of bounds until a bogus block id happens to be hit.

Iterate only while a full message block is available. This stops the unsigned underflow and silently drops any trailing partial block, which carries no complete control value anyway.

The sibling endpoint-4 parsers are not affected. The Traktor Kontrol X1 and Maschine arms in snd_usb_caiaq_ep4_reply_dispatch() floor urb->actual_length before dispatching.

It was discovered that some Arm processors could complete a broadcast translation lookaside buffer (TLB) invalidation before memory writes made through the invalidated translation were globally observed. A local attacker could possibly use this to write to memory after permission to do so had been revoked, bypassing memory protections or escalating privileges. (CVE-2025-10263)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM64 architecture; - User-space API (UAPI); - Kernel build system; - ARM32 architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - Compute Acceleration Framework; - Intel NPU Driver; - ACPI drivers; - Android drivers; - Drivers core; - Compressed RAM block device driver; - Bluetooth drivers; - Character device driver; - Hardware random number generator core; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - Buffer Sharing and Synchronization framework; - Intel Stratix 10 firmware drivers; - FPGA Framework; - GPIO subsystem; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - CoreSight HW tracing drivers; - I2C subsystem; - IIO subsystem; - IIO ADC drivers; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - Input Device (Mouse) drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - IRQ chip drivers; - M…
