Summary

In the Linux kernel Synaptics RMI4 driver (F54), a bug could lead to heap buffer overflow because report_size was not zeroed on error, causing stale larger payload to be copied into a smaller V4L2 buffer.

Risk Assessment

The bug could lead to heap buffer overflow, potentially causing system crash or privilege escalation.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel update containing the fix for the synaptics-rmi4 driver.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: synaptics-rmi4 - zero report size on F54 work error In rmi_f54_work(), if an error occurs during report request or command verification, the code jumped directly to the 'error' label, bypassing the 'abort' label where f54->report_size was normally zeroed out. This left f54->report_size containing its previous successful payload size. If a user then altered the V4L2 format to a smaller size, and a subsequent run failed, rmi_f54_buffer_queue() would copy the stale, larger payload size into the shrunken V4L2 buffer, causing a heap buffer overflow. Fix this by merging the 'abort' and 'error' labels into a single 'out' exit path, and ensuring that f54->report_size is always set to 0 on failure by checking for error and zeroing the local report_size first.
