Technical description

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

HID: wacom: fix slab-out-of-bounds write in wacom_wac_queue_insert

wacom_wac_queue_insert() calls kfifo_skip() in a loop when the kfifo

doesn't have enough space for the incoming report. If the kfifo is

empty, kfifo_skip() reads stale data left in the kmalloc'd buffer

via __kfifo_peek_n() and interprets it as a record length, advancing

fifo->out by that garbage value. This corrupts the internal kfifo

state, causing kfifo_unused() to return a value much larger than the

actual buffer size, which bypasses __kfifo_in_r()'s guard:

if (len + recsize > kfifo_unused(fifo))

return 0;

kfifo_copy_in() then performs an out-of-bounds memcpy, writing up to

3842 bytes past the 256-byte buffer.

Add a !kfifo_is_empty() condition to the while loop so kfifo_skip()

is never called on an empty fifo, and check the return value of

kfifo_in() to reject reports that are too large for the fifo.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-64366?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine.
