When two such events race on different CPUs\nboth can pass the !priv->switches check and register the priv->switches\ninput device twice, resulting in a duplicate sysfs entry and a subsequent\nNULL pointer dereference.\n\nThis is the same class of bug fixed by commit e075c3b13a0a (\"platform/x86:\nintel-vbtn: Protect ACPI notify handler against recursion\") for the\nsibling intel-vbtn driver.\n\nProtect intel-hid notify_handler() from racing with itself with a mutex\nto fix this."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/platform/x86/intel/hid.c"],"versions":[{"version":"e2ffcda1629012a2c1a3706432bc45fdc899a584","lessThan":"a6402808e552e44e9c26a9fe8395ac11703d5800","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"e2ffcda1629012a2c1a3706432bc45fdc899a584","lessThan":"86df6499dfd232fbc1c82c0d6eb9322ca67b8cd0","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"e2ffcda1629012a2c1a3706432bc45fdc899a584","lessThan":"eace3b3e729d5ba11794d69acfafb58a7950217c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"e2ffcda1629012a2c1a3706432bc45fdc899a584","lessThan":"c085d82613d5618814b84406c8b2d64f1bc305e7","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/platform/x86/intel/hid.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.8","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.8","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.96","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.39","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1.4","lessThanOrEqual":"7.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2","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":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.96"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.39"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"7.1.4"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"7.2"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a6402808e552e44e9c26a9fe8395ac11703d5800"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/86df6499dfd232fbc1c82c0d6eb9322ca67b8cd0"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/eace3b3e729d5ba11794d69acfafb58a7950217c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c085d82613d5618814b84406c8b2d64f1bc305e7"}],"title":"platform/x86: intel-hid: Protect ACPI notify handler against recursion","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
