Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
HID: magicmouse: Do not crash on missing msc->input<br />
<br />
Fake USB devices can send their own report descriptors for which the<br />
input_mapping() hook does not get called. In this case, msc->input stays NULL,<br />
leading to a crash at a later time.<br />
<br />
Detect this condition in the input_configured() hook and reject the device.<br />
<br />
This is not supposed to happen with actual magic mouse devices, but can be<br />
provoked by imposing as a magic mouse USB device.
