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

Input: elantech - fix stack out of bound access in elantech_change_report_id()

The array param[] in elantech_change_report_id() must be at least 3
bytes, because elantech_read_reg_params() is calling ps2_command() with
PSMOUSE_CMD_GETINFO, that is going to access 3 bytes from param[], but
it's defined in the stack as an array of 2 bytes, therefore we have a
potential stack out-of-bounds access here, also confirmed by KASAN:
