Technical description

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

Input: cs40l50-vibra - validate custom data from user space

cs40l50_add() copies the custom data of an FF_PERIODIC/FF_CUSTOM effect

straight from the ff_effect the user passed to EVIOCSFF, without

requiring it to hold anything:

work_data.custom_data = memdup_array_user(periodic->custom_data,

periodic->custom_len,

sizeof(s16));

work_data.custom_len = periodic->custom_len;

The driver then reads two words out of that buffer: custom_data[0] as the

waveform bank in cs40l50_effect_bank_set(), and custom_data[1] as the

index within the bank in cs40l50_effect_index_set(). Neither read is

covered by a length check, and custom_len is fully user controlled:

- custom_len == 0 makes memdup_array_user() call memdup_user() with a

length of zero, which returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR rather than an error, so

custom_data[0] derefer

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-80575?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-80575 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
