CVE-2026-63916 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: wacom: Fix OOB write in wacom_hid_set_device_mode() wacom_hid_set_device_mode() currently assumes that the HID_DG_INPUTMODE usage is always located in the first field (field[0]) of the feature report. However, a device can specify HID_DG_INPUTMODE in a different field. If HID_DG_INPUTMODE is in a field other than the first one and the first field has a report_count smaller than the usage_index of HID_DG_INPUTMODE, this leads to an out-of-bounds write to r->field[0]->value. Fix this by storing the field index of HID_DG_INPUTMODE in 'struct hid_data' during feature mapping. In wacom_hid_set_device_mode(), use this stored field index to access the correct field and add bounds checks to ensure both the field index and the value index are within valid ranges before writing.
A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's Wacom HID driver, specifically in the function wacom_hid_set_device_mode(). The issue arises because the function incorrectly assumes that the HID_DG_INPUTMODE usage is always in the first field of the feature report. In reality, this usage can be in a different field. If it is not in the first field and the first field's report count is smaller than the usage index of HID_DG_INPUTMODE, an out-of-bounds write occurs. This vulnerability affects several versions of the Linux kernel.
Users can update to the latest version of the Linux kernel, where this vulnerability has been fixed. Instructions for updating the kernel can be found in the official Linux documentation.
