The Human Interface Device (HID) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 3.11, when CONFIG_LOGITECH_FF, CONFIG_LOGIG940_FF, or CONFIG_LOGIWHEELS_FF is enabled, allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based out-of-bounds write) via a crafted device, related to (1) drivers/hid/hid-lgff.c, (2) drivers/hid/hid-lg3ff.c, and (3) drivers/hid/hid-lg4ff.c.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2013-2893 is a Linux kernel HID flaw affecting certain Logitech force-feedback support paths. A person with physical access could connect a crafted HID device and crash or disrupt the system. The business risk is mostly local disruption, not broad remote compromise, based on the supplied evidence. Exposure is most plausible on older Linux systems or embedded builds using kernels through 3.11 with affected Logitech force-feedback HID options enabled and accessible physical USB/HID ports. Treat this as a legacy Linux exposure requiring hygiene and physical-access controls. Prioritize shared workstations, kiosks, labs, and embedded systems over standard remote servers. Mitigation focus: Apply relevant vendor kernel updates from Ubuntu, Red Hat, or SUSE advisories.; Move unsupported Linux systems off kernels through 3.11 where feasible.; Disable affected Logitech force-feedback HID support where not required..
