iPhone 5 stopped charging suddenly. What to do?

Last night, I put the phone on charge and slept and it charged fine. This afternoon when I wanted to charge the phone again at 45%, it wouldn't charge. Since then, I have tried everything but it won't charge. Connected it with the laptop, still won't charge. Instead, the laptop gives an error message "The USB device connected malfunctioned." I always charge from the wall socket and nothing happens when I connect it since this afternoon. Also tried resetting the phone, nothing changed.

Is the problem with the iPhone? or the USB cable?

How to fix the problem?

Everything was completely fine till last night.

Try another cable first... and not some el-cheapo no-name brand... make sure it's at least "Made for i" certified if not an original Apple cable.
