Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-07-19 17:02:52 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

platform/x86: uniwill-laptop: Do not enable the charging limit even when forced

It seems that on some older models (~2020) the battery charging limit
can permanently damage the battery. Prevent users from enabling this
feature thru the "force" module parameter to avoid causing permanent
hardware damage on such devices.
