{"id":"CVE-2026-68091","summary":"HID: wacom: stop hardware after post-start probe failures","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nHID: wacom: stop hardware after post-start probe failures\n\nwacom_parse_and_register() starts HID hardware before registering inputs\nand initializing pad LEDs/remotes. Those later steps can fail, but their\nerror paths currently release Wacom resources without stopping the HID\nhardware.\n\nRoute post-hid_hw_start() failures through hid_hw_stop() before\nreleasing driver resources.\n\nThis issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while\nreviewing kernel code.","modified":"2026-10-08T02:51:37.347729373Z","published":"2026-08-10T11:51:46.683Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2026:23477-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23481-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23528-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23529-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23881-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23887-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23897-1","SUSE-SU-2026:23902-1","SUSE-SU-2026:4120-1","SUSE-SU-2026:4254-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:21910-1"],"database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/68xxx/CVE-2026-68091.json","cna_assigner":"Linux"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1a1ebdcb56ae58a0ee2c54dd15d75121e30424e3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3e6473a4f0596182acdda5219b4bebfbee76514f"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/416095e9a6037b4b39fcadd0d2bd77a8852211ec"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/46d8b8c85ae0589fb85746a64e8908160e52aac3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5a7ca028facf04921b2c1c2e4d1ee7f282510555"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/75eb2173b63ab41c24d80cd641af18f3c117a267"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e2cc711a9df37f359159b21db56cea9c21f58a9c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ec2612b8ad9e642596db011dd8b6568ef1edeaa1"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/68xxx/CVE-2026-68091.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-68091"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"f304eb483393f135ab479d02da6f5dc7d9b51cd6"},{"fixed":"5a7ca028facf04921b2c1c2e4d1ee7f282510555"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"853307924a9003b3142b5253b1caa6625fbad9fc"},{"fixed":"3e6473a4f0596182acdda5219b4bebfbee76514f"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"e5c6c8ef3e4d3a88407404daafbf2c6be62f2185"},{"fixed":"46d8b8c85ae0589fb85746a64e8908160e52aac3"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"fc41101a94b11cd0d5ad8e213b2b6965f248d653"},{"fixed":"1a1ebdcb56ae58a0ee2c54dd15d75121e30424e3"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"c1d6708bf0d3dd976460d435373cf5abf21ce258"},{"fixed":"75eb2173b63ab41c24d80cd641af18f3c117a267"},{"fixed":"416095e9a6037b4b39fcadd0d2bd77a8852211ec"},{"fixed":"e2cc711a9df37f359159b21db56cea9c21f58a9c"},{"fixed":"ec2612b8ad9e642596db011dd8b6568ef1edeaa1"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"5.10.210"},{"fixed":"5.10.261"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"5.15.149"},{"fixed":"5.15.212"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"6.1.79"},{"fixed":"6.1.178"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"6.6.18"},{"fixed":"6.6.145"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"4.19.307"},{"fixed":"4.20"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"5.4.269"},{"fixed":"5.5"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"6.7.6"},{"fixed":"6.8"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"d943536197c1a05e377452af4ec7942e11d018f4"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"dbaca8fa9ec2c5aa55ec515686ce3b9007554eab"}]},{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"79187e8099a9feb550916dbfb962497522022b6d"}]}],"versions":["v5.10.260","v5.10.259","v5.10.258","v5.10.257","v5.10.256","v5.10.255","v5.10.254","v5.10.253","v5.10.252","v5.10.251","v5.10.250","v5.10.249","v5.10.248","v5.10.247","v5.10.246","v5.10.245","v5.10.244","v5.10.243","v5.10.242","v5.10.241","v5.10.240","v5.10.239","v5.10.238","v5.10.237","v5.10.236","v5.10.235","v5.10.234","v5.10.233","v5.10.232","v5.10.231","v5.10.230","v5.10.229","v5.10.228","v5.10.227","v5.10.226","v5.10.225","v5.10.224","v5.10.223","v5.10.222","v5.10.221","v5.10.220","v5.10.219","v5.10.218","v5.10.217","v5.10.216","v5.10.215","v5.10.214","v5.10.213","v5.10.212","v5.10.211","v5.10.210","v5.15.211","v5.15.210","v5.15.209","v5.15.208","v5.15.207","v5.15.206","v5.15.205"
