In drivers/hid/hid-elo.c in the Linux kernel before 5.16.11, a memory leak exists for a certain hid_parse error condition.
A memory leak flaw was found in elo_probe in drivers/hid/hid-elo.c in the Human Interface Devices (HID) in the Linux kernel. This issue allows an attacker to cause a denial of service when hid_parse() in elo_probe() fails.
