In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: pidff: Fix null pointer dereference in pidfffindfields
This function triggered a null pointer dereference if used to search for a report that isn't implemented on the device. This happened both for optional and required reports alike.
The same logic was applied to pidfffindspecialfield and although pidffinit_fields should return an error earlier if one of the required reports is missing, future modifications could change this logic and resurface this possible null pointer dereference again.
