Technical description

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

media: verisilicon: rockchip: reject AV1 frames exceeding the tile capacity

rockchip_vpu981_av1_dec_set_tile_info() indexes the tile group entry

array by tile1 * tile_cols + tile0, reading up to tile_cols * tile_rows

entries, lays out one descriptor per tile in the AV1_MAX_TILES tile_info

buffer, and programs the real tile_cols / tile_rows into the hardware.

The tile group entry control is a dynamic array sized to the number of

entries userspace submitted, independent of tile_cols / tile_rows, so a

frame that claims more tiles than entries reads past the array. A frame

that claims more than AV1_MAX_TILES tiles also leaves the hardware

programmed for more tiles than the descriptor buffer holds.

Reject both in prepare_run(): tile_cols * tile_rows must not exceed the

submitted entry count or AV1_MAX_TILES. The entry count is read via

v4l2_ctrl_find() (ctrl->elems). This mirrors the bound the mediatek AV1

decoder alrea

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-97577?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine.
