UBUNTU-CVE-2026-99069: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel package families should be assessed?

The affected software list includes ubuntu/linux-riscv, ubuntu/linux-realtime, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, ubuntu/linux-azure-fde, ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge, ubuntu/linux-gke, and ubuntu/linux.

Q: How can I determine whether a system reaches the affected code path?

Check whether the ati_remote2 driver is in use and whether its channel_mask or mode_mask device attributes are exposed on a bound USB interface. The issue is in the handlers for those attributes.

Q: Are fixed Ubuntu package versions provided?

No fixed package versions are included in the supplied data. The referenced stable kernel change is commit 2caae9d1977beea0a7914b3d86639262801fd116.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: atiremote2 - fix type confusion in device attribute handlers Previously, the channelmask and modemask attributes were registered on the parent usbdevice via sysfscreategroup(). When commit b20d6bf8014b ("Input: ati-remote2 - use driver core to instantiate device attributes") converted the driver to let the driver core manage them via devgroups in struct usbdriver, the attributes moved to the bound usbinterface devices, but the show and store callbacks were not updated accordingly. As a result, the callbacks still invoked tousbdevice() on a device pointer belonging to a struct usbinterface, producing an invalid usbdevice pointer. Use tousbinterface() directly in the attribute handlers to obtain the interface and its driver data.
