Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved. The issue is related to the
iforce input device, where the valid length check is inverted when fetching device IDs. This is caused by the iforce get id packet() function storing the valid length when returning 0, requiring the caller to check that the valid length is longer than or equal to the bytes to read. The iforce init device() function is reporting an uninitialized value.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
