{"id":"AZL-84002","summary":"CVE-2026-31599 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.137.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmedia: vidtv: fix NULL pointer dereference in vidtv_channel_pmt_match_sections\n\nsyzbot reported a general protection fault in vidtv_psi_desc_assign [1].\n\nvidtv_psi_pmt_stream_init() can return NULL on memory allocation\nfailure, but vidtv_channel_pmt_match_sections() does not check for\nthis. When tail is NULL, the subsequent call to\nvidtv_psi_desc_assign(&tail-\u003edescriptor, desc) dereferences a NULL\npointer offset, causing a general protection fault.\n\nAdd a NULL check after vidtv_psi_pmt_stream_init(). On failure, clean\nup the already-allocated stream chain and return.\n\n[1]\nOops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000000: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI\nKASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]\nRIP: 0010:vidtv_psi_desc_assign+0x24/0x90 drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_psi.c:629\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n vidtv_channel_pmt_match_sections drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_channel.c:349 [inline]\n vidtv_channel_si_init+0x1445/0x1a50 drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_channel.c:479\n vidtv_mux_init+0x526/0xbe0 drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_mux.c:519\n vidtv_start_streaming drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_bridge.c:194 [inline]\n vidtv_start_feed+0x33e/0x4d0 drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_bridge.c:239","modified":"2026-08-28T17:48:03.347225223Z","published":"2026-04-24T15:16:38Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-31599"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-31599"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.137.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-84002.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
