Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-63916)

CWE-ID: CWE-787 - Out-of-bounds write

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


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

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in wacom_hid_set_device_mode() when handling a HID feature report where HID_DG_INPUTMODE is mapped to a field other than the first one. A local user can connect or emulate a crafted device to trigger the out-of-bounds write and cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs when the first field in the feature report has a report_count smaller than the usage index of HID_DG_INPUTMODE.
