CVE-2026-93071

What the bug is

v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote() allocates the asc, which is freed when v4l2_async_nf_cleanup() is called. Call v4l2_async_nf_cleanup() properly in the driver paths. Discovered with kmemleak after rmmod: unreferenced object 0xffff000084526b80 (size 64): comm "modprobe", pid 185, jiffies 4295013512 hex dump (first 32 bytes): 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e8 0d ff bf 00 00 ff ff ................ 40 83 bc 84 00 00 ff ff 60 83 bc 84 00 00 ff ff @.......`....... backtrace (crc ac584083): [<00000000ffb081a7>] kmemleak_alloc+0x38/0x44 [<00000000d2fd9301>] __kmalloc+0x1b0/0x250 [<000000004dd5354d>] __v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode+0x28/0x9c [<0000000067587657>] __v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote+0x3c/0x64

Where it lives

The fix touches these files. If the subsystem is one you do not use, the practical exposure is lower, though the package is still the vulnerable one.

What this is

BROADCOM BCM2835 CAMERA DRIVERSMAINTAINERS section matched on drivers/media/platform/broadcom/bcm2835-unicam* · linux-media@vger.kernel.org · Maintained

Check it on the machine

grep -w CONFIG_VIDEO_BCM2835_UNICAM /boot/config-$(uname -r)

Reads the booted kernel's own configuration, on the machine and nowhere else. =y is built in, =m is a module, and an is not set line means the code is not there.

Show whether Debian builds this, per release

Debian does not build this code in 4 releases. The build rule could not be established for 1 release, so nothing is claimed about those.

?

not established - no Makefile entry for the affected file

n

not enabled on any flavour - this release does not build the code

Where a release above reads "not established", no build rule for the affected file was found in that release's kernel tree. That is a gap in this lookup, not a finding that the code is absent.

Build switch

CONFIG_VIDEO_BCM2835_UNICAM

From the configuration Debian publishes for every kernel flavour it builds. It covers only the architectures Debian ships a linux-config package for, and nothing about a kernel you built yourself.
