The int type does not offer\nenough space to store these values, and attempting to use it is a\nrecipe for problems. In this particular case, overflows would occur\nwhen calculating/storing timestamps leading to incorrect values being\nreported to userspace. In some cases these bad timestamps cause input\nhandling in userspace to appear hung."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/hid/wacom_wac.c","drivers/hid/wacom_wac.h"],"versions":[{"version":"f9e27d4bdb1fe257c1453d02560e3adc3e5b6023","lessThan":"99036f1aed7e82773904f5d91a9897bb3e507fd9","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"4502ebbdc0e21e44a8a706428e420ae9c1bb9bba","lessThan":"9598a647ecc8f300b0540abf9d3b3439859d163b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5047a228d4c8e2b5d1b856f21a00ecf717945a9c","lessThan":"67ce7724637c6adb66f788677cb50b82615de0ac","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"fb98336e23c11e9c8c7dd5425ec71adbbef7f773","lessThan":"d89750b19681581796dfbe3689bbb5d439b99b24","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"694d3e4387bfa69925e075053894385351106e64","lessThan":"bdeaa883b765709f231f47f9d6cc76c837a15396","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"17d793f3ed53080dab6bbeabfc82de890c901001","lessThan":"d0198363f9108e4adb2511e607ba91e44779e8b1","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"17d793f3ed53080dab6bbeabfc82de890c901001","lessThan":"9a6c0e28e215535b2938c61ded54603b4e5814c5","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"82a136c35506dc788a6c03ffeb11b10c907b0e26","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/hid/wacom_wac.c","drivers/hid/wacom_wac.h"],"versions":[{"version":"6.4","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.4","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.4.251","lessThanOrEqual":"5.4.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.188","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.120","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.37","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.3.11","lessThanOrEqual":"6.3.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.4.1","lessThanOrEqual":"6.4.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.5","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.4.243","versionEndExcluding":"5.4.251"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.10.180","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.188"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.15.112","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.120"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.1.29","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.37"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.3.3","versionEndExcluding":"6.3.11"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.4","versionEndExcluding":"6.4.1"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.4","versionEndExcluding":"6.5"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.2.16"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/99036f1aed7e82773904f5d91a9897bb3e507fd9"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9598a647ecc8f300b0540abf9d3b3439859d163b"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/67ce7724637c6adb66f788677cb50b82615de0ac"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d89750b19681581796dfbe3689bbb5d439b99b24"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bdeaa883b765709f231f47f9d6cc76c837a15396"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d0198363f9108e4adb2511e607ba91e44779e8b1"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9a6c0e28e215535b2938c61ded54603b4e5814c5"}],"title":"HID: wacom: Use ktime_t rather than int when dealing with timestamps","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
