CVE-2022-50182

Linux Linux, linux kernel

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: imx-jpeg: Align upwards buffer size The hardware can support any image size WxH, with arbitrary W (image width) and H (image height) dimensions. Align upwards buffer size for both encoder and decoder. and leave the picture resolution unchanged. For decoder, the risk of memory out of bounds can be avoided. For both encoder and decoder, the driver will lift the limitation of resolution alignment. For example, the decoder can support jpeg whose resolution is 227x149 the encoder can support nv12 1080P, won't change it to...

Recommended response sequence

Confirm exposure before applying a vendor-supported change.

Full remediation guide
  1. 1
    Identify

    Confirm that Linux Linux, linux kernel and an affected version are present.

  2. 2
    Prioritize

    Combine exploitation signals with asset exposure and business criticality.

  3. 3
    Remediate

    Follow the vendor advisory or supported update path and preserve rollback options.

  4. 4
    Verify

    Recheck the version, service health, access paths, and relevant logs.
