A vulnerability was found in drivers/input/input.c in the Linux Kernel, where the input_set_capability() function mishandles scenarios where an event code is outside the bitmap. This issue can lead to a kernel panic when the event code exceeds the bitmap for the specified event type, which could allow an attacker to cause a kernel crash and potential disruption of services.
