drivers/hid/hid-sony.c in the Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_HID_SONY is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A flaw in the Linux Sony HID driver could let someone with physical access connect a crafted device and crash or destabilize an affected system. This is not described as remotely exploitable. Business urgency depends mainly on whether untrusted people can attach peripherals to affected Linux machines. Exposure is limited to systems running Linux kernel through 3.11 with CONFIG_HID_SONY enabled and accepting physically proximate crafted devices. Likely concern areas include workstations, kiosks, labs, and appliances where untrusted users can attach peripherals. Sources do not name specific distributions or packages. Prioritize systems where untrusted users can physically connect devices. For controlled servers with restricted physical access, urgency is lower. For public-facing workstations or appliances, handle in the next kernel maintenance cycle or sooner if vendor guidance flags impact. Mitigation focus: Identify Linux systems running kernel versions through 3.11.; Check whether CONFIG_HID_SONY is enabled on those systems.; Apply vendor kernel updates or distribution guidance where available..
