Subject: [PATCH 5.10 20/43] HID: magicmouse: do not keep a stale msc->input if no input is claimed
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 15:35:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831133359.437874578@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831133358.571886287@linuxfoundation.org>
5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jose Villaseñor Montfort <pepemontfort@gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit 0af3b89705688af01aa06025b84fa7a1e06ba6cc ]
magicmouse_input_mapping() caches the first hid_input's input_dev in
msc->input while the report descriptor is parsed, and the rest of the
driver treats a non-NULL msc->input as proof that an input device was
registered.
That does not hold on the hid-input error path. If hidinput_connect()
fails -- for instance because input_register_device() returns an error --
it unwinds through hidinput_disconnect(), which frees every input_dev it
created, including the one cached in msc->input.
The failure does not abort the probe. hid_connect() only skips the claim:
if ((connect_mask & HID_CONNECT_HIDINPUT) && !hidinput_connect(hdev,
connect_mask & HID_CONNECT_HIDINPUT_FORCE))
hdev->claimed |= HID_CLAIMED_INPUT;
and the "device has no listeners" bailout below it does not fire for this
driver, which sets ->raw_event; on the USB Magic Mouse 2 / Magic Trackpad
2 paths hidraw and hiddev are claimed as well. hid_hw_start() therefore
returns 0 and magicmouse_probe() continues with msc->input pointing at
freed memory. Being non-NULL, it passes the "input not registered" check
in probe and the NULL checks in ->raw_event and ->event, so the next
input report dereferences freed memory.
Clear msc->input when the HID core did not claim an input device, so the
existing NULL checks cover this case as well.
Fixes: f1a9a149abc8 ("HID: magicmouse: fix race between input_register() and probe()")
