Severity: MEDIUM
Status: ✅ Confirmed exploited in the wild (CISA KEV)

- linux linux kernel
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: core: zero-initialize the report buffer
Since the report buffer is used by all kinds of drivers in various ways, let's
zero-initialize it during allocation to make sure that it can't be ever used
to leak kernel memory via specially-crafted report.

Lyrie Verdict
Lyrie's autonomous detection layer catches active exploitation primitives at machine speed — closing the gap between disclosure and weaponization that traditional defense simply can't cover.
