[PATCH] HID: magicmouse: Do not crash on missing msc->input
From: Günther Noack
Date: Fri Jan 09 2026 - 06:01:22 EST
Fake USB devices can send their own report descriptors for which the
input_mapping() hook does not get called. In this case, msc->input stays NULL,
leading to a crash at a later time.
Detect this condition in the input_configured() hook and reject the device.
This is not supposed to happen with actual magic mouse devices, but can be
provoked by imposing as a magic mouse USB device.
