"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable path is the gadget bind/unbind sequence driven entirely by local writes to `/sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget/<g>/UDC` (or legacy gadget module load); no USB traffic from an attached host is involved, so this is a local syscall/filesystem-reachable bug rather than a physical-access one.\nAC:L - The attacker controls every step — the successful bind, the unbind that leaves `rndis->notify_req` dangling, and the forced failure of the next bind (e.g. exhausting `usb_interface_id()`/`usb_ep_autoconfig()` by reshaping a functionfs function between cycles), plus the heap spray that reclaims the freed `usb_request`.\nPR:L - Only local write access to the USB gadget configfs tree is needed, which on Android and embedded/industrial deployments is routinely delegated to non-root system/daemon accounts that drive USB function switching; no capability check exists in the bind path itself.\nUI:N - The attacker performs all configfs writes itself; no victim action, cable plug event, or interaction with any other user is required.\nS:U - The dangling-pointer free corrupts kernel heap state within the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - Use of the freed `usb_request` reads `->buf` out of reclaimed slab memory the attacker can groom, and the resulting arbitrary-free/double-free primitives enable object overlap and kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - `kfree()` of an attacker-controlled pointer read from the freed request, plus a double free through `ep->ops->free_request`, yields classic heap-corruption primitives that can be leveraged into arbitrary write and privilege escalation.\nA:H - The immediate observed effect is a kernel oops — NULL/garbage `ep->ops` dereference in `usb_ep_free_request()` or slab corruption from the double free — panicking the system."
