Keystroke disclosure via world-accessible device nodes
Published Nov 30, 2022 · Updated Apr 24, 2025
Improper permissions in g810-led 0.4.2 allow local users to read sensitive keyboard traffic from supported Logitech Gx10 devices. Its udev rule assigns mode 0666 to supported device nodes, granting every local process read and write access instead of limiting access to the active console user. Exploitation requires local code execution and a connected supported keyboard; captured traffic can include passwords and other keystrokes.
