{"id":"AZL-103013","summary":"CVE-2026-93189 affecting package kernel 6.6.150.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nHID: core: quiesce input in hid_hw_stop() to prevent use-after-free\n\nA driver's probe calls hid_device_io_start() to enable input delivery,\nthen fails at a later initialization step and unwinds via hid_hw_stop().\nThe unwind frees struct hidraw via hidraw_disconnect() while in-flight\nHID reports may still be running on another CPU, dereferencing the\nfreed object through hidraw_report_event(). syzbot reports the\nresulting use-after-free for the corsair-psu HID driver.\n\nEdward Adam Davis posted a per-driver fix for corsair-psu that adds\nan explicit hid_device_io_stop() before hid_hw_stop() in the probe\nerror path (\"hwmon: prevent packets from going to driver for probe\",\n2026-04-28). Auditing the tree shows 15 drivers call\nhid_device_io_start(); 7 also call hid_device_io_stop() and 8 do not:\n\n  drivers calling hid_device_io_start() without a matching\n  hid_device_io_stop() before hid_hw_stop():\n    drivers/hwmon/corsair-psu.c       (fix posted by Edward)\n    drivers/hwmon/corsair-cpro.c\n    drivers/hwmon/nzxt-kraken3.c\n    drivers/hwmon/nzxt-smart2.c\n    drivers/hwmon/gigabyte_waterforce.c\n    drivers/hid/hid-logitech-dj.c\n    drivers/hid/hid-nintendo.c\n    drivers/hid/hid-mcp2221.c\n\nRoughly half of all callers of the API are exposed. Centralize the\nquiesce in hid_hw_stop() so callers do not have to remember the\nmatching stop: if a driver has left hdev-\u003eio_started true on entry,\ncall hid_device_io_stop() before hid_disconnect().\n\nFor the 7 drivers that already call hid_device_io_stop() correctly,\nhdev-\u003eio_started is false on entry, the guard short-circuits, and\nbehavior is unchanged.\n\nNo Fixes: tag because the affected drivers gained their\nhid_device_io_start() calls independently over years; the bug is a\nclass-wide API misuse rather than a regression from one commit.","modified":"2026-09-19T05:33:49Z","published":"2026-09-17T17:18:15Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-93189"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-93189"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.150.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-103013.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
