Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A Use-After-Free (UAF) issue exists in the hidpp connect event() function. This occurs when input register device() fails, leading to a call to input free device() while a stale pointer to the old device remains in hidpp->input. A Use-After-Free is a memory corruption flaw where an application continues to use a pointer after the memory it points to has been freed.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
