Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-03 15:32 – Updated: 2026-09-04 06:31

Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Input: synaptics-rmi4 - fix F55 transmitter electrode count typo

During F55 sensor detection, the transmitter (TX) electrode count was incorrectly assigned the value of the receiver (RX) electrode count due to copy-paste typos.

This incorrect value was then propagated to the driver data and used by F54 to determine the diagnostics report size. On devices with more RX than TX electrodes, this inflated the perceived TX count, leading to incorrect report size calculations and potential out-of-bounds buffer accesses.

Fix the typos by correctly assigning the TX electrode counts.

Severity

7.8 (High)

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

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.
