Subject: [PATCH] USB: core: prevent malicious bNumInterfaces overflow

commit 48a4ff1c7bb5a32d2e396b03132d20d552c0eca7 upstream.

A malicious USB device with crafted descriptors can cause the kernel
to access unallocated memory by setting the bNumInterfaces value too
high in a configuration descriptor.  Although the value is adjusted
during parsing, this adjustment is skipped in one of the error return
paths.

This patch prevents the problem by setting bNumInterfaces to 0
initially.  The existing code already sets it to the proper value
after parsing is complete.

CVE: CVE-2017-17558
Upstream-Status: Backport [https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-4.14.y&id=4c5ae6a301a5415d1334f6c655bebf91d475bd89]
