From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop Calling hid_hw_stop() does not stop the device IO. This results in a race condition between hid_input_report() and the point immediately following the execution of hid_device_io_start() within the driver probe function. If the probe operation fails after "io start" has been initiated, this race condition will result in a UAF vulnerability. Fix the problem by calling hid_device_io_stop() before calling hid_hw_stop(). The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68360 to this issue. Affected and fixed versions =========================== Issue introduced in 5.9 with commit 40c3a445422579db8ad96c234dbe6c0ab3f6b936 and fixed in 6.6.148 with commit 0975c42ed2a3bf32125a920e5d19194289126210 Issue introduced in 5.9 with commit 40c3a445422579db8ad96c234dbe6c0ab3f6b936 and fixed in 6.12.101 with commit c7757db58957ac20cdec6ce575dbd44a6375664e Issue introduced in 5.9 with commit 40c3a445422579db8ad96c234dbe6c0ab3f6b936 and fixed in 6.18.42 with commit 56d2deb6448378118dbe68c4fbb3fbae5f65b18c Issue introduced in 5.9 with commit 40c3a445422579db8ad96c234dbe6c0ab3f6b936 and fixed in 7.1.6 with commit 1a634f464d6153dfa4d7e73a3d78236b65a64ee9 Issue introduced in 5.9 with commit 40c3a445422579db8ad96c234dbe6c0ab3f6b936 and fixed in 7.2-rc5 with commit 94c87871b051d7ad758828a805215a2ec194512a Please see https://www.kernel.org for a full list of currently supported kernel versions by the kernel community. Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/hwmon/corsair-cpro.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0975c42ed2a3bf32125a920e5d19194289126210 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c7757db58957ac20cdec6ce575dbd44a6375664e https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/56d2deb6448378118dbe68c4fbb3fbae5f65b18c https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1a634f464d6153dfa4d7e73a3d78236b65a64ee9 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/94c87871b051d7ad758828a805215a2ec194512a
