{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2025-37971","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  staging: bcm2835-camera: Initialise dev in v4l2_dev  Commit 42a2f6664e18 (\"staging: vc04_services: Move global g_state to vchiq_state\") changed mmal_init to pass dev-\u003ev4l2_dev.dev to vchiq_mmal_init, however nothing iniitialised dev-\u003ev4l2_dev, so we got a NULL pointer dereference.  Set dev-\u003ev4l2_dev.dev during bcm2835_mmal_probe. The device pointer could be passed into v4l2_device_register to set it, however that also has other effects that would need additional changes.","modified":"2026-08-27T23:05:20.962479517Z","published":"2025-05-20T17:15:47.630Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-37971"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2025-37971"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.12.29-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2025-37971.json"}},{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.12.29-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2025-37971.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
