Overview

CVE-2026-43310 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on May 8, 2026 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: verisilicon: Avoid G2 bus error while decoding H.264 and HEVC

For the i.MX8MQ platform, there is a hardware limitation: the g1 VPU and

g2 VPU cannot decode simultaneously; otherwise, it will cause below bus

error and produce corrupted pictures, even potentially lead to system hang.

[ 110.527986] hantro-vpu 38310000.video-codec: frame decode timed out.

[ 110.583517] hantro-vpu 38310000.video-codec: bus error detected.

Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that g1 and g2 operate alternately.

This allows for successful multi-instance decoding of H.264 and HEVC.

To achieve this, g1 and g2 share the same v4l2_m2m_dev, and then the

v4l2_m2m_dev can handle the scheduling.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-43310?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-43310 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
