Description
===========

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

Input: ims-pcu - fix out-of-bounds read in ims_pcu_irq() debug logging

The debug logging in ims_pcu_irq() unconditionally prints data from
pcu->urb_in_buf. However, if the interrupt fired for pcu->urb_ctrl, the
actual data resides in pcu->urb_ctrl_buf. If urb->actual_length for the
control URB exceeds pcu->max_in_size, this leads to an out-of-bounds
read.

Fix this by printing from the correct buffer associated with the URB.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-72076 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
