From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: vivid: check for vb2_is_busy() when toggling caps The vivid_update_format_cap/out() functions must only be called if the capture/output queue are not busy. But for the controls that select the CROP/COMPOSE/SCALE capability that is not checked. Only when streaming starts will they be set to 'grabbed' and it is impossible to change the control, but between REQBUFS and STREAMON you are still allowed to set these controls. Since vivid_update_format_cap/out will change the format, this can cause unexpected results. Besides adding these checks, also add a WARN_ON in vivid_update_format_cap/out() if the queue is busy. I'm 90% certain that this is the cause of this syzbot bug: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=dac8f5eaa46837e97b89 But since we never have reproducers, it is hard to be certain. In any case, these checks are needed regardless. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-68204 to this issue.

Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2026-68204 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/media/test-drivers/vivid/vivid-ctrls.c drivers/media/test-drivers/vivid/vivid-vid-cap.c drivers/media/test-drivers/vivid/vivid-vid-out.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a9cd0e8fb0b21faaa71199d9d3feb305c18ff576 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/abaec6747304581f8d4a9936352fa10e13325f07 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/492c97cb50feaa60ccd7792d3d6b904ed8ec61bf https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/daf2d92669b4a659d805d88d811161c70cd325ee https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c2d1a2130c93f6d758af58590b86b2254c7a1dec
