Two vulnerabilities were found in libinput, an input device management and event handling library.
CVE-2022-1215
libinput did not properly handled evdev devices, which may potentially be
exploited by malicious local users in specific setup to execute arbitrary
code. Reported by Albin Eldstål-Ahrens and Lukas Lamster.
CVE-2026-50292
A udev helper provided by libinput performed insufficient sanitising of
device properties, which can result in local privilege escalation in
some setups. Reported by Csome.
