CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information, corrupt memory, or cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds read and write operations in the hid-rmi driver when handling undersized RMI reports. A remote attacker can send specially crafted RMI reports to disclose sensitive information, corrupt memory, or cause a denial of service.
A zero-length reply can cause the read loop to run indefinitely with page_mutex held.
