During the removal of a uclogic device, a timing issue allows the `inrange_timer` to be re-armed after it has been cancelled. This can lead to the timer attempting to access memory that has already been freed, resulting in a use-after-free vulnerability in the kernel's timer-softirq context. This flaw could potentially lead to system instability or a denial of service.\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Moderate · affected: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4 · no fix planned: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4 · updated 2026-10-25 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-80766.json)\n\n**kernel: HID: uclogic: fix use-after-free of inrange_timer on remove** — rated Moderate by Red Hat.
