Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-ctrls: validate HEVC active reference counts
HEVC slice parameters are shared stateless V4L2 controls, but the common
validation path does not verify the active L0/L1 reference counts before
driver-specific code consumes them.
The original report came from Cedrus, but the active count bounds are
not Cedrus-specific. Validate them in the common HEVC slice control path
so stateless HEVC drivers get the same basic guarantees as soon as the
control is queued.
Do not reject ref_idx_l0/ref_idx_l1 entries here. Existing userspace may
use out-of-range sentinel values such as 0xff for missing references, and
some hardware can use that information for concealment. Keep this common
check limited to the active reference counts.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's V4L2 controls for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). The common validation path for HEVC slice parameters does not properly verify the active L0/L1 reference counts before driver-specific code processes them. This lack of validation could allow a local user or application to provide malformed HEVC slice parameters, potentially leading to unexpected behavior or system instability.
