Instead of\nkeeping a side table for additional information, use driver_info field of\nthe usb_device_id.\n\nThe dynamic ID parsing code needs to be updated for this; convert it to\njust write to the reserved entry for dynamic ID and remove the weird loop.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
