  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  HID: alps: unregister DualPoint Stick input device on remove  alps_input_configured() allocates a second input device (\"DualPoint Stick\") with input_allocate_device() and registers it, but the alps_driver struct has no .remove handler and input2 is not tracked in hdev-\u003einputs.  The default remove path (hid_hw_stop -\u003e hidinput_disconnect) only iterates hdev-\u003einputs, so input2 is never unregistered and leaks on every device removal.  Add a .remove handler that stops the device first (preventing URB callbacks from touching input2 during teardown) and then unregisters input2.",
