No network protocol carries those fields.\nAC:L - The attacker sets tile_cols and tile_rows to any u8 (e.g. 255) in that AV1_FRAME control and queues STREAMON/MEDIA_REQUEST_IOC_QUEUE; vdec_av1_slice_setup_tile() and rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() then loop and index on those values deterministically, with no race or victim-side state.\nPR:L - hantro_open() and fops_vcodec_open() have no capable() check; v4l2_prio_check() only compares V4L2 file-handle priority among openers. An unprivileged local user who can open the decoder node (video group, udev uaccess, or Android media-codec UID) is sufficient.\nUI:N - The attacking process itself opens the stateless AV1 decoder, submits the crafted AV1_FRAME control, queues buffers, and starts streaming. No victim action such as mounting media or opening a file is required.\nS:U - The overflows stay inside the kernel's kzalloc'd vdec_av1_slice_pfc (lat_buf->private_data) and the hantro tile_info coherent DMA buffer in the same kernel security authority. No VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() reads group_entry[tile1*tile_cols+tile0] with a product up to 255*255 past the V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COUNT TILE_GROUP_ENTRY array, and indexes height_in_sbs_minus_1[tile1] past its 64-entry field, pulling adjacent kernel heap into the decode path.\nI:H - vdec_av1_slice_setup_tile() writes tile_cols+1 entries into mi_col_starts[V4L2_AV1_MAX_TILE_COLS+1] on the kzalloc'd pfc before the later product check; rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() writes 16 bytes per tile into a 128-slot (AV1_TILE_INFO_SIZE) DMA buffer for up to 255*255 tiles, an attacker-controlled kernel write.\nA:H - Those heap and DMA-buffer overruns walk into unmapped or poisoned memory and produce a kernel oops or KASAN report, and the attacker can repeat the AV1_FRAME request at will."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ctrls-core.c"],"versions":[{"version":"9de30f579980b498606a9c2440b73ae3b670771b","lessThan":"1afaf85c4990fb1e3168d0d6e99246a65e526f1b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9de30f579980b498606a9c2440b73ae3b670771b","lessThan":"85df9fc79b07f1cc7c953f930ae7e675d0c1e820","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9de30f579980b498606a9c2440b73ae3b670771b","lessThan":"c8891da0186fe4c04bccbbd7d84b01a3c941ac7a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9de30f579980b498606a9c2440b73ae3b670771b","lessThan":"c4c88b5ba85685043d171e0e9c9d00a8cf6a89e8","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"9de30f579980b498606a9c2440b73ae3b670771b","lessThan":"439058ced617fbb3febc017b9e93bb7387f309e0","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ctrls-core.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.5","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.5","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.158","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.111","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.53","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.7","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc3","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.158"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.111"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.53"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.5","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.7"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.5","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc3"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1afaf85c4990fb1e3168d0d6e99246a65e526f1b"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/85df9fc79b07f1cc7c953f930ae7e675d0c1e820"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c8891da0186fe4c04bccbbd7d84b01a3c941ac7a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c4c88b5ba85685043d171e0e9c9d00a8cf6a89e8"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/439058ced617fbb3febc017b9e93bb7387f309e0"}],"title":"media: v4l2-ctrls: validate AV1 tile counts","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
