HIGHmedia: rzv2h-ivc: Fix concurrent buffer list access
Blast Radius
KernelReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Linux packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: rzv2h-ivc: Fix concurrent buffer list access
The list of buffers (rzv2h_ivc::buffers.queue) is protected by a
spinlock (rzv2h_ivc::buffers.lock). However, in
rzv2h_ivc_transfer_buffer(), which runs in a separate workqueue, the
list_del() call is executed without holding the spinlock, which makes
it possible for the list to be concurrently modified
Fix that by removing a buffer from the list in the lock protected section.
[assign ivc->buffers.curr in critical section as reported by Barnabas]

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for Kernel. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update Kernel to 7.0.9 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-53380 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-53380 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-53380. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2026-53380 in your dependencies?
O3 detects CVE-2026-53380 across Linux dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
