HID: core: Fix size_t specifier in hid_report_raw_event()

HID: core: introduce hid_safe_input_report()

2026-05-23T11:09:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit 206342541fc887ae919774a43942dc883161fece ] hid_input_report() is used in too many places to have a commit that doesn't cross subsystem borders. Instead of changing the API, introduce a new one when things matters in the transport layers: - usbhid - i2chid This effectively revert to the old behavior for those two transport layers.

HID: pass the buffer size to hid_report_raw_event

2026-05-23T11:09:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2c85c61d1332e1e16f020d76951baf167dcb6f7a ] commit 0a3fe972a7cb ("HID: core: Mitigate potential OOB by removing bogus memset()") enforced the provided data to be at least the size of the declared buffer in the report descriptor to prevent a buffer overflow. However, we can try to be smarter by providing both the buffer size and the data size, meaning that hid_report_raw_event() can make better decision whether we should plaining reject the buffer (buffer overflow attempt) or if we can safely memset it to 0 and pass it to the rest of the stack.

HID: core: clamp report_size in s32ton() to avoid undefined shift

2026-04-22T11:32:15+00:00

commit 69c02ffde6ed4d535fa4e693a9e572729cad3d0d upstream. s32ton() shifts by n-1 where n is the field's report_size, a value that comes directly from a HID device. The HID parser bounds report_size only to <= 256, so a broken HID device can supply a report descriptor with a wide field that triggers shift exponents up to 256 on a 32-bit type when an output report is built via hid_output_field() or hid_set_field(). Commit ec61b41918587 ("HID: core: fix shift-out-of-bounds in hid_report_raw_event") added the same n > 32 clamp to the function snto32(), but s32ton() was never given the same fix as I guess syzbot hadn't figured out how to fuzz a device the same way. Fix this up by just clamping the max value of n, just like snto32() does.

HID: core: Mitigate potential OOB by removing bogus memset()

2026-03-16T15:21:06+00:00

The memset() in hid_report_raw_event() has the good intention of clearing out bogus data by zeroing the area from the end of the incoming data string to the assumed end of the buffer. However, as we have previously seen, doing so can easily result in OOB reads and writes in the subsequent thread of execution. The current suggestion from one of the HID maintainers is to remove the memset() and simply return if the incoming event buffer size is not large enough to fill the associated report.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

HID: bpf: rescan the device for the group after a load/unload

2025-09-12T15:11:55+00:00

When a BPF gets loaded, it was previously not possible to bind a hid-generic device to hid-multitouch because the group was never updated. This change forces a rescan of the report descriptor after a bpf is loaded/unloaded so we set up the proper group. This was detected while Peter was trying to fix a Viewsonic device: the HID device sending multiotuch data through a proprietary collection was handled by hid-generic, and we don't have any way of attaching it to hid-multitouch because the pre-scanning wasn't able to see the Contact ID HID usage.
