CVE-2026-80767

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A use-after-free issue exists in the HID sensor custom module. The enable sensor store() function can call set power report state(), which dereferences sensor inst->power state and sensor inst->report state. These pointers refer to entries in sensor inst->fields. If the enable sensor sysfs attribute is accessed before the state is initialized, or if a concurrent sysfs write occurs during the removal process after field attributes are freed, it can lead to the dereferencing of freed memory.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
