If any of the\nwork callbacks (oxp_rgb_queue_fn, oxp_btn_queue_fn, oxp_mcu_init_fn) is\nrunning at the time of removal, the callback continues executing\nconcurrently with hid_hw_close() and hid_hw_stop(), accessing the HID\ndevice after it has been closed and stopped.\n\nUse cancel_delayed_work_sync() instead to ensure that any in-progress\nwork callback completes before device teardown proceeds.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `Linux >= 84910c459d65ab3a1aeac7f936169fb71334dd46 < eed737d89fa368251018a62e1d698958ef7dc635`\n- `Linux >= 84910c459d65ab3a1aeac7f936169fb71334dd46 < abd24922c2a9797d6184be0561dd85e7bcdfd091`\n- `Linux 7.2`\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":[]}
