CVE-2023-48697

Azure RTOS USBX is a USB host, device, and on-the-go (OTG) embedded stack, that is fully integrated with Azure RTOS ThreadX. An attacker can cause remote code execution due to memory buffer and pointer vulnerabilities in Azure RTOS USBX. The affected components include functions/processes in pictbridge and host class, related to PIMA, storage, CDC ACM, ECM, audio, hub in RTOS v6.2.1 and below. The fixes have been included in USBX release 6.3.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
