Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-80569)

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

CVSSv4: 8.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds write in the synaptics-rmi4 F54 diagnostics report handling in rmi_f54_work() when processing a malicious or malfunctioning RMI4 device report with larger F55 electrode counts than F54 counts. A local user can provide a specially crafted device that reports inconsistent electrode counts to execute arbitrary code.

The issue can also cause an out-of-bounds read during the subsequent V4L2 dequeue memcpy().
