CVE-2026-64427

Published Jul 25, 2026 EPSS 0.18% (7th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-64427 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 25, 2026.

Technical Description

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

HID: logitech-dj: Fix maxfield check in DJ short report validation

Commit b6a57912854e ("HID: logitech-dj: Prevent REPORT_ID_DJ_SHORT

related user initiated OOB write") added validation for the DJ short

output report, but the error path dereferences rep->field[0] even when

rep->maxfield is zero.

Commit 8b9a097eb2fc ("HID: logitech-dj: fix wrong detection of bad

DJ_SHORT output report") made the check conditional on rep being present,

but a crafted descriptor can still create report ID 0x20 with only padding

output items. hid-core registers the report, ignores the padding field,

and leaves rep->maxfield as zero.

In that case the validation enters the rep->maxfield < 1 branch and then

dereferences rep->field[0]->report_count while printing the error message,

causing a NULL pointer dereference during probe. This is reproducible with

uhid by emulating a Logitech receiver with a padding-only DJ short output

report:

B
