Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-03-06 16:01:55 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: uvcvideo: Fix deadlock during uvc_probe

If uvc_probe() fails, it can end up calling uvc_status_unregister() before
uvc_status_init() is called.

Fix this by checking if dev->status is NULL or not in
uvc_status_unregister().
