  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmedia: zoran: Avoid freeing a registered video_device twice\n\nzoran_init_video_device() installs zoran_vdev_release() as the\nvideo_device release callback through zoran_template. After\nvideo_register_device() succeeds, video_unregister_device() drops the\nregistered video_device reference and the V4L2 core eventually invokes\nthat release callback, which kfree()s the video_device.\n\nzoran_exit_video_devices() called video_unregister_device() and then\nkfree(zr->video_dev), so device teardown could free the same\nvideo_device twice.\n\nRemove the direct kfree() and clear the cached pointer after\nunregistering. The pre-registration failure path keeps its manual free\nbecause the video_device was not registered there.\n\nThis issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by\nmanual source review.",

      "scenario": "AV:L - The double-free is in zoran_exit_video_devices() on the ZR36057/36067 PCI MJPEG capture driver's zoran_remove() path (rmmod zr36067, PCI sysfs unbind, or hot-remove). It is reached from local driver teardown, not from network packets or a remote protocol.\nAC:L - After a successful probe, zoran_remove() always calls video_unregister_device() then kfree(zr->video_dev). With no open fds, v4l2_device_release() already kfree's via zoran_vdev_release, so the second kfree is a deterministic double-free. With an fd held, the extra kfree is a deterministic UAF. No attacker-uncontrollable race or layout is required.\nPR:L - v4l2_open() has no capable() check; udev typically grants /dev/video* to the video group or seated uaccess user on capture/surveillance hosts (e.g. AverMedia 6 Eyes). Per CNA driver-removal UAF precedent, an unprivileged local user can hold the node and spray the freed video_device while teardown proceeds; init-namespace root is not required.\nUI:N - No victim action such as mounting a filesystem is required; the attacker opens /dev/video themselves and coordinates with driver removal (unbind/rmmod/maintenance). CNA driver-removal UAFs score UI:N.\nS:U - The double-free/UAF corrupts the host kernel slab object struct video_device. Any privilege escalation remains in the same kernel; this is not a VM/IOMMU boundary bypass.\nC:H - Double-free/UAF of struct video_device lets an attacker reclaim the slab object and read leftover kernel pointers/object state via subsequent ioctl/mmap on a still-open /dev/video fd, so confidentiality is High.\nI:H - struct video_device embeds fops, ioctl_ops, and a release callback; reclaiming the freed object enables function-pointer overwrite and control-flow hijacking, so integrity is High.\nA:H - A kernel double-free of video_device causes an oops/panic on the second kfree or on use of the dangling device, so availability is High."
