CVE-2026-89739

/// Technical description

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

usb: dwc3: gadget: Fix use-after-free in dwc3_gadget_free_endpoints due to race condition

In dwc3_gadget_init_endpoint, &dep->nostream_work is bound with

dwc3_nostream_work, and dwc3_gadget_endpoint_stream_event can queue

this delayed work on system_percpu_wq when a DEPEVT_STREAM_NOSTREAM

event is received.

If we remove the gadget, dwc3_gadget_free_endpoints makes cleanup and

the memory allocated for dep with kzalloc() is released by kfree(dep),

while the delayed work mentioned above may still be pending or

running. The sequence of operations that may lead to a UAF bug is as

follows:

CPU0 CPU1

| dwc3_thread_interrupt

| dwc3_endpoint_interrupt

| dwc3_gadget_endpoint_stream_event

| queue_delayed_work(system_percpu_

/// Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
