- Summary
- HID: wacom: fix crash in wacom_aes_battery_handler()
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: wacom: fix crash in wacomaesbattery_handler()
Commit fd2a9b29dc9c ("HID: wacom: Remove AES powersupply after extended inactivity") introduced wacomaesbatteryhandler() which is scheduled as a delayed work (aesbatterywork).
In wacomremove(), aesbatterywork is not canceled. Consequently, if the device is removed while aesbatterywork is still pending, then hard crashes or "Oops: general protection fault..." are experienced when wacomaesbatteryhandler() is finally called. E.g., this happens with built-in USB devices after resume from hibernate when aesbatterywork was still pending at the time of hibernation.
So, take care to cancel aesbatterywork in wacom_remove().
