ALSA: usb-audio: Fix NULL pointer dereference in snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix NULL pointer dereference in snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd
In snd_usb_create_streams(), for UAC version 3 devices, the Interface
Association Descriptor (IAD) is retrieved via usb_ifnum_to_if(). If this
call fails, a fallback routine attempts to obtain the IAD from the next
interface and sets a BADD profile. However, snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd()
assumes that the IAD retrieved from usb_ifnum_to_if() is always valid,
without performing a NULL check. This can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference when usb_ifnum_to_if() fails to find the interface descriptor.
This patch adds a NULL pointer check after calling usb_ifnum_to_if() in
snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd() to prevent the dereference.
This issue was discovered by syzkaller, which triggered the bug by sending
a crafted USB device descriptor.
