Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's media: verisilicon: AV1 driver. The driver incorrectly calculates the buffer size for tile information, which can lead to writing data beyond the allocated memory. This memory corruption vulnerability could result in system instability or a denial of service.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-05-06 13:10:51 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: verisilicon: AV1: Fix tile info buffer size

Each tile info is composed of: row_sb, col_sb, start_pos
and end_pos (4 bytes each). So the total required memory
is AV1_MAX_TILES * 16 bytes.
Use the correct #define to allocate the buffer and avoid
writing tile info in non-allocated memory.
