In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: hid-steam: Fix use-after-free when detaching device
When a hid-steam device is removed it must clean up the client_hdev used for
intercepting hidraw access. This can lead to scheduling deferred work to
reattach the input device. Though the cleanup cancels the deferred work, this
was done before the client_hdev itself is cleaned up, so it gets rescheduled.
This patch fixes the ordering to make sure the deferred work is properly
canceled.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's hid-steam module. This vulnerability occurs when a hid-steam device is detached, as a timing issue in the cleanup process can lead to a use-after-free condition. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit this flaw. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary code execution, allowing the attacker to gain full control of the system, or cause a system crash (denial of service).
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
