I've found several issues in the Linux HID code. They are making their way into the Linux kernel via the linux-input tree now: http://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=137772180514608&w=10001-HID-validate-HID-report-id-size.patch http://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=137772191114645&w=10012-HID-sensor-hub-validate-feature-report-details.patch CVE-2013-2898 Requires CONFIG_HID_SENSOR_HUB Potential kernel caller confusion via past-end-of-heap-allocation read A HID device could send a malicious feature report that would cause the sensor-hub HID driver to read past the end of heap allocation, leaking kernel memory contents to the caller.
