How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 kernel-debug-modules-core.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug-modules-core package and not the kernel-debug-modules-core package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

HID: core: ensure the allocated report buffer can contain the reserved report ID

When the report ID is not used, the low level transport drivers expect the first byte to be 0. However, currently the allocated buffer not account for that extra byte, meaning that instead of having 8 guaranteed bytes for implement to be working, we only have 7.
