When pvr2_hdw_create returns back to pvr2_context_create,\nit calls pvr2_context_destroy to destroy context, but mp->hdw is NULL,\nwhich leads to that pvr2_hdw_destroy directly returns.\n\nFix this by adding v4l2_device_unregister to decrease the refcount of\nusb interface.","published":"2025-06-18T11:15:26.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T05:19:41.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-401"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00253,"percentile":0.1669,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.25%).
