CVE-2025-38044 Information

Jun 19, 2025 cve

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: cx231xx: set device_caps for 417

The video_device for the MPEG encoder did not set device_caps.

Add this otherwise the video device can’t be registered (you get a WARN_ON instead).

Not seen before since currently 417 support is disabled but I found this while experimenting with it.
