HIGH
Published Sep 16, 2025 Modified Jan 14, 2026 CWE-787

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: intel-thc-hid: intel-quicki2c: Fix ACPI dsd ICRS/ISUB length The QuickI2C ACPI _DSD methods return ICRS and ISUB data with a trailing byte, making the actual length is one more byte than the structs defined.
