Summary

In the Linux kernel HID hid-ntrig driver, ntrig_report_version() does not check whether the device parent pointer is null, which can cause a page fault at an invalid address returned by hid_to_usb_dev(). The fix adds a null check before calling hid_to_usb_dev().

Risk Assessment

May cause a kernel crash (page fault) and denial of service, especially when interacting with a crafted HID device via /dev/uhid.

Recommendation

Update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix for the hid-ntrig driver.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: hid-ntrig: fix unable to handle page fault in ntrig_report_version() in ntrig_report_version(), hdev parameter passed from hid_probe(). sending descriptor to /dev/uhid can make hdev->dev.parent->parent to null if hdev->dev.parent->parent is null, usb_dev has invalid address(0xffffffffffffff58) that hid_to_usb_dev(hdev) returned when usb_rcvctrlpipe() use usb_dev,it trigger page fault error for address(0xffffffffffffff58) add null check logic to ntrig_report_version() before calling hid_to_usb_dev()
