Overview

CVE-2022-49247 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on February 26, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: stk1160: If start stream fails, return buffers with VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED

If the callback 'start_streaming' fails, then all

queued buffers in the driver should be returned with

state 'VB2_BUF_STATE_QUEUED'. Currently, they are

returned with 'VB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR' which is wrong.

Fix this. This also fixes the warning:
