CVE-2026-97575

HIGHCVSS 7.8/10

Last modified

CVE-2026-97575 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.8/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-ctrls: validate AV1 tile counts The stateless AV1 decoders use tile_info.tile_cols and tile_rows as loop bounds and as indices into the mi_*_starts[] and *_in_sbs_minus_1[] arrays, as the divisor for context_update_tile_id, and their product bounds the per-tile descriptor buffers, but std_validate_compound() does not bound these u8 fields. Reject a V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_AV1_FRAME whose tile_cols or tile_rows exceeds V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COLS / _ROWS, or whose product exceeds V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COUNT.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-ctrls: validate AV1 tile counts The stateless AV1 decoders use tile_info.tile_cols and tile_rows as loop bounds and as indices into the mi_*_starts[] and *_in_sbs_minus_1[] arrays, as the divisor for context_update_tile_id, and their product bounds the per-tile descriptor buffers, but std_validate_compound() does not bound these u8 fields. Reject a V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_AV1_FRAME whose tile_cols or tile_rows exceeds V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COLS / _ROWS, or whose product exceeds V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COUNT. A zero tile count is left to the consuming driver so the zero-initialised control that existing userspace submits is still accepted.
