It is reached only via local driver bind of the onboard MIPI camera ISP, not via network packets, Bluetooth, or USB attachment.\nAC:L - The missing isys_notifier_cleanup() on the out_cleanup path is deterministic. A local attacker can force the subsequent 2 MiB FW_LOG_BUF_SIZE kzalloc in isys_fw_log_init() to fail under memory pressure, and the UAF is then hit the next time notifier_list is walked, with no race the attacker must win.\nPR:L - After probe failure leaves the notifier on the global notifier_list, ACPI camera sensors typical of IPU7 laptops (ov02c10, ov08x40, and similar) call v4l2_async_register_subdev_sensor() and walk that list without capabilities. Per CNA guidance, Low is used when probe/bind privilege gating is ambiguous.\nUI:N - No victim action such as opening /dev/video*, mounting a filesystem, or plugging a device is required. The dangling notifier is planted on the probe error path and consumed automatically when a sensor or other V4L2 async client registers.\nS:U - Impact is host-kernel slab use-after-free and list corruption inside the IPU7/V4L2 async core. This is standard kernel privilege-escalation territory and does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox security boundary.\nC:H - The notifier is embedded in struct ipu7_isys, which devres frees while it remains linked on notifier_list. A later walk reads freed notifier fields and ops; per kernel CNA UAF guidance that reuse primitive enables arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - Walking or unlinking the dangling notifier_entry corrupts kernel lists, and a reclaimed object can redirect notifier->ops (bound/complete) to attacker-controlled function pointers, yielding an arbitrary-write and control-flow hijack primitive.\nA:H - The next notifier_list walk or bound callback on the freed ipu7_isys object causes a kernel oops or panic, and use-after-free heap corruption inherently denies availability even without a full exploit."}]}], "affected": [{"product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": ["drivers/staging/media/ipu7/ipu7-isys.c"], "versions": [{"version": "a516d36bdc3d8373f904af57c95e76d6f921cf1c", "lessThan": "2a8dd9fd12f3f6b21207cec8f50c92cd428e6b81", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "a516d36bdc3d8373f904af57c95e76d6f921cf1c", "lessThan": "323c411fb63122e8cef5b833032d69d59a838559", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "a516d36bdc3d8373f904af57c95e76d6f921cf1c", "lessThan": "d7f48aa7d60c65d3e6d5312c27f17d5525a245fb", "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/staging/media/ipu7/ipu7-isys.c"], "versions": [{"version": "6.17", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.17", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "6.18.50", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2.4", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.2.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.3-rc1", "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": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.50"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2.4"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "7.3-rc1"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2a8dd9fd12f3f6b21207cec8f50c92cd428e6b81"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/323c411fb63122e8cef5b833032d69d59a838559"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d7f48aa7d60c65d3e6d5312c27f17d5525a245fb"}], "title": "media: staging/ipu7: fix async notifier UAF on probe error path", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
