CVE-2026-46058

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: amphion: Fix race between m2m job_abort and device_run Fix kernel panic caused by race condition where v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() frees m2m_ctx while v4l2_m2m_try_run() is about to call device_run with the same context. Race sequence: v4l2_m2m_try_run(): v4l2_m2m_ctx_release(): lock/unlock v4l2_m2m_cancel_job() job_abort() v4l2_m2m_job_finish() kfree(m2m_ctx) <- frees ctx device_run() <- use-after-free crash at 0x538 Crash trace: Unable to handle kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address 0000000000000538 v4l2_m2m_try_run+0x78/0x138 v4l2_m2m_device_run_work+0x14/0x20 The amphion vpu driver does not rely on the m2m framework's device_run callback to perform encode/decode operations. Fix the race by preventing m2m framework job scheduling entirely: - Add job_ready callback returning 0 (no jobs ready for m2m framework) - Remove job_abort callback to avoid the race condition

Affected products and versions

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.

Remediation & validation

  1. Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
  2. Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
  3. Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
  4. Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.

No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
