Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's synaptics-rmi4 input driver. The rmi_f3a_map_gpios() function incorrectly allocates memory for the gpio_key_map, making it smaller than required. This allows a device reporting a specific gpio_count value to trigger an out-of-bounds read, leading to information disclosure by leaking adjacent slab memory to user space. Additionally, a local user with access to the evdev node can exploit this vulnerability to perform out-of-bounds writes with caller-controlled values, which may lead to further system compromise.
