Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31624)

CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:P/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an undefined shift caused by improper input validation in s32ton() when processing a malicious HID report descriptor during output report construction. A local attacker can supply a broken HID device with an oversized report_size field to cause a denial of service.

The issue is triggered when an output report is built via hid_output_field() or hid_set_field().
