CVE-2023-25012

Published: 2 February 2023

The Linux kernel through 6.1.9 has a Use-After-Free in bigben_remove in drivers/hid/hid-bigbenff.c via a crafted USB device because the LED controllers remain registered for too long.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

It was discoved that the BigBen Interactive Kids' gamepad driver on the Linux kernel had a use-after-free vulnerability. An attacker able to inject a malicious USB device could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. XXX

Notes

AuthorNote
sbeattie
requires the removal of the device to exploit, usually
implying physical access.
upstream submission claims the issue was introduced in
4eb1b01de5b9 ("HID: hid-bigbenff: fix race condition for scheduled
work during removal"), which may also have a security impact.
