{"id":"AZL-108611","summary":"CVE-2026-98502 affecting package kernel 6.6.157.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nHID: alps: unregister DualPoint Stick input device on remove\n\nalps_input_configured() allocates a second input device (\"DualPoint\nStick\") with input_allocate_device() and registers it, but the\nalps_driver struct has no .remove handler and input2 is not tracked in\nhdev-\u003einputs.  The default remove path (hid_hw_stop -\u003e hidinput_disconnect)\nonly iterates hdev-\u003einputs, so input2 is never unregistered and leaks\non every device removal.\n\nAdd a .remove handler that stops the device first (preventing URB\ncallbacks from touching input2 during teardown) and then unregisters\ninput2.","modified":"2026-10-19T14:16:31.229137757Z","published":"2026-10-18T16:17:01Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-98502"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-98502"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"6.6.157.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-108611.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
