Overview

CVE-2025-68342 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on December 23, 2025.

Technical description

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

can: gs_usb: gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): check actual_length before accessing data

The URB received in gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback() contains a struct

gs_host_frame. The length of the data after the header depends on the

gs_host_frame hf::flags and the active device features (e.g. time

stamping).

Introduce a new function gs_usb_get_minimum_length() and check that we have

at least received the required amount of data before accessing it. Only

copy the data to that skb that has actually been received.

[mkl: rename gs_usb_get_minimum_length() -> +gs_usb_get_minimum_rx_length()]

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2025-68342?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2025-68342 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
