Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's OneXPlayer Human Interface Device (HID) driver. A local user could cause a Denial of Service (DoS) through a race condition during device removal. Because delayed background tasks are canceled without waiting for active callbacks to finish, in-progress tasks continue executing concurrently with hardware shutdown. Accessing the device after it has been closed and stopped may result in kernel instability or a system crash.
