UBUNTU-CVE-2026-90330: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-azure vulnerability

Q: Which systems are exposed to this issue?

The affected software list includes Ubuntu linux, linux-azure, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure-fips, linux-fips, linux-gcp-fips, linux-gcp, and linux-oracle kernel packages. The vulnerable code path concerns the Logitech HID++ force-feedback driver during force-feedback device initialization.

Q: What conditions are needed for exploitation?

The supplied vector indicates physical access, no privileges, no user interaction, and low attack complexity. The failure occurs when allocations made after creation of the force-feedback input device fail during initialization.

Q: What is the expected security impact?

The supplied severity vector identifies availability impact as high, with no stated impact on confidentiality or integrity. The issue is rated medium with a score of 4.1.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: logitech-hidpp: Fix FF device cleanup on init failure hidppffinit() creates the input force-feedback device with inputffcreate(), then allocates the HID++ FF private data, effect ID array, and workqueue. If any of those allocations fail after inputffcreate() succeeds, the function returns an error without destroying the FF device. Add an unwind path that frees the private allocations made by hidppffinit() and calls inputffdestroy() for failures after inputffcreate() succeeds.
