How to check
- Find out whether you run the affected product and which version, then compare it with the versions above.
How to fix
Copies a prompt for Claude Code, Cursor or Codex that asks it to check whether you run this product.
- Apply the vendor's update or mitigation from the references below. If there is none yet, limit exposure of the affected service until there is.
- If a vulnerable version was live, check your logs and rotate the secrets that server could read.
The advisory
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: nxp: imx8-isi: Fix streaming cleanup on release
The current implementation unconditionally calls
mxc_isi_video_cleanup_streaming() in mxc_isi_video_release(). This can
lead to situations where any release call (like from a simple
"v4l2-ctl -l") may release a currently streaming queue when called on
such a device.
This is reproducible on an i.MX8MP board by streaming from an ISI
capture device using gstreamer:
gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src device=/dev/videoX ! \
video/x-raw,format=GRAY8,width=1280,height=800,framerate=1/120 ! \
fakesink
While this stream is running, querying the caps of the same device
provokes the error state:
v4l2-ctl -l -d /dev/videoX
This results in the following trace:

Address this issue by moving the streaming preparation and cleanup to
the vb2 .prepare_streaming() and .unprepare_streaming() operations. This
also simplifies the driver by allowing direct usage of the
vb2_ioctl_streamon() and vb2_ioctl_streamoff() helpers, and removal of
the manual cleanup from mxc_isi_video_release().
Check your whole app
Dependencies are only half of it. Free and read-only: before you push, run npx shippable-dev scan localhost:3000 in your project folder, no account needed. For your live app, you prove it's yours with a one-line tag first.
