CVE-2024-58002

Freed-object access via dangling control pointer

Published Feb 27, 2025 · Updated Aug 5, 2026

Use-after-free in the Linux uvcvideo driver allows local users to trigger freed-object access through an asynchronous control write. The driver retains the initiating file handle and later dereferences it after release if its descriptor closes while the control remains pending. The trigger requires access to a compatible UVC device; kernel.org identifies no concrete consequence beyond the invalid access.
