Summary
net: usb: asix: validate PHY address before use
Details

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

net: usb: asix: validate PHY address before use

The ASIX driver reads the PHY address from the USB device via asixreadphyaddr(). A malicious or faulty device can return an invalid address (>= PHYMAXADDR), which causes a warning in mdiobusget_phy():

addr 207 out of range WARNING: drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c:76

Validate the PHY address in asixreadphy_addr() and remove the now-redundant check in ax88172a.c.
