EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 5.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.1%, top 98% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

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

usb: dwc3: gadget: Move vbus draw to workqueue context

Currently dwc3_gadget_vbus_draw() can be called from atomic context, which in turn invokes power-supply-core APIs. And some these PMIC APIs have operations that may sleep, leading to kernel panic.

Fix this by moving the vbus_draw into a workqueue context.
