Sep 4 ENRICHED — CVE-2026-64362 (Linux). Received CVSS 7.8 and CPE data from NVD.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: lg-g15: cancel pending work on remove to fix a use-after-free
lg_g15_data is allocated with devm and holds a work item. The report
handlers schedule that work straight from device input.
lg_g15_event() and lg_g15_v2_event() do it on the backlight cycle key,
and lg_g510_leds_event() does it too. The worker dereferences the
lg_g15_data back through container_of.
The driver had no remove callback and never cancelled the work. So if a
report scheduled the work and the keyboard was then unplugged, devres
freed lg_g15_data while the work was still pending or running, and the
worker touched freed memory. This is a use-after-free. It is reachable
as a race on device unplug.
Add a remove callback that cancels the work before devres frees the
state. g15->work is only initialized for the models that schedule it
(G15, G15 v2, G510). The G13 and Z-10 leave it zeroed, so guard the
cancel on g15->work.func to avoid cancelling a work that was never set
up. The g15 NULL test mirrors the one already in lg_g15_raw_event().
