It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-68656 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: espressif esp-usb. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68656/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68656/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-68656","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68656/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-68656","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2pm2-62mr-c9x7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ESP-IDF USB Host Driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free in the ESP-IDF USB Host HID driver allows attackers to cause crashes or execute code via malicious descriptors.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"usb_host_hid_driver","vendor":"espressif"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"Espressif ESP-IDF USB Host HID (Human Interface Device) Driver allows access to HID devices.
