In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: chips-media: wave5: Fix SError of kernel panic when closed

SError of kernel panic rarely happened while testing fluster. The root cause was to enter suspend mode because timeout of autosuspend delay happened.

AnalysisAI

Kernel panic via SError interrupt in Linux kernel media driver (chips-media wave5) when device enters autosuspend during video decoding operations. Local authenticated attackers can trigger a denial of service by queuing buffers to the wave5 video decoder while autosuspend timeout occurs, causing the CPU to access suspended hardware and generate an unrecoverable asynchronous SError, crashing the system. No privilege escalation or code execution; impact limited to availability.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability exists in the wave5 video decoder driver (chips-media WAVE521 codec), a V4L2 media framework component for hardware-accelerated video decoding. The root cause is a race condition between the autosuspend PM (power management) subsystem and the wave5_dec_clr_disp_flag() function, which accesses hardware registers. When autosuspend timeout expires and the device enters sleep state, subsequent calls to wave5_dec_clr_disp_flag() attempt to access registers on suspended hardware, triggering an ARM64 SError (System Error) - an asynchronous exception that cannot be caught or handled, causing immediate kernel panic. This affects systems running the wave5 decoder (primarily Texas Instruments J721S2 SoCs and similar platforms with this codec) when PM autosuspend is enabled.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Linux 6.13 or stable series 6.18.16, 6.19.6, or 7.0+. If immediate upgrade not feasible, apply upstream commit 27cb12b7dc88c51582094eeb2b65b0e94603e411 to your kernel tree. The fix adds PM reference counting to wave5_vpu_dec_buf_queue() to prevent hardware access during suspend. Alternatively, disable autosuspend for the wave5 device via sysctl or power management configuration (echo -1 > /sys/devices/.../power/autosuspend_delay_ms), trading power efficiency for stability. For production video decoding systems, upgrading is strongly preferred over disabling autosuspend, as the latter increases power consumption and thermal load on embedded platforms. Verify fix by ensuring wave5_dec_clr_disp_flag() is protected by pm_runtime_get_sync()/pm_runtime_put() calls.
