CVE-2024-41097 is an improper input-validation vulnerability in the Linux kernel USB ATM CXACRU driver. The cxacru_bind() function incompletely validated the presence and types of USB endpoints during device binding. Consequently, the driver could use an endpoint of an incorrect type when submitting USB Request Blocks (URBs), causing a warning in usb_submit_urb(). The fix validates the required input and output endpoint types, including the CXACRU command endpoint type.
