## Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  usb: gadget: configfs: fix out-of-bounds read of qw_sign  os_desc_qw_sign_show() passes OS_STRING_QW_SIGN_LEN as the input length to utf16s_to_utf8s(), but that argument counts UTF-16 code units while OS_STRING_QW_SIGN_LEN (14) is the byte size of qw_sign[]. The array holds only OS_STRING_QW_SIGN_LEN / 2 (7) code units, so the conversion reads up to 7 units (14 bytes) past the end of qw_sign[] into the following members of struct gadget_info when the stored signature fills the array without a NUL terminator, exposing those bytes through the configfs attribute.  The store path halves the count for its input bound but passes the full byte count as the utf8s_to_utf16s() output limit; use the destination code-unit count in both directions.
