Title
Bluetooth: HIDP: fix missing length checks in hidp_input_report()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: HIDP: fix missing length checks in hidp_input_report()
hidp_input_report() reads keyboard and mouse payload data from an skb
without first verifying that skb->len contains enough data.
hidp_recv_intr_frame() pulls the 1-byte HIDP header before dispatching
to hidp_input_report(). If a paired device sends a truncated packet,
the handler reads beyond the valid skb data, resulting in an
out-of-bounds read of skb data. The OOB bytes may be interpreted as
phantom key presses or spurious mouse movement.
Replace the open-coded length tracking and pointer arithmetic with
skb_pull_data() calls. skb_pull_data() returns NULL if the requested
bytes are not present, eliminating the need for a manual size variable
and the separate skb->len guard.

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.
Experimental. This forecast is provided for visualization only and may change without notice. Do not use it for operational decisions.
Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
