CVE-2026-43058: media: vidtv: fix pass-by-value structs causing MSAN warnings
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.12% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Linux Linux 1b2820c8a9887981634020db19f1a2425558b88e, 57b01d945ed68cebe486d495dadc4901a96d3aaa, 5f8e73bde67e931468bc2a1860d78d72f0c6ba41; azl3 kernel 6.6.134.1-2 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.137.1-2.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 1b2820c8a9887981634020db19f1a2425558b88e, 57b01d945ed68cebe486d495dadc4901a96d3aaa, 5f8e73bde67e931468bc2a1860d78d72f0c6ba41; azl3 kernel 6.6.134.1-2 on Azure Linux 3.0 6.6.137.1-2 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: vidtv: fix pass-by-value structs causing MSAN warnings vidtv_ts_null_write_into() and vidtv_ts_pcr_write_into() take their argument structs by value, causing MSAN to report uninit-value warnings. While only vidtv_ts_null_write_into() has triggered a report so far, both functions share the same issue. Fix by passing both structs by const pointer instead, avoiding the stack copy of the struct along with its MSAN shadow and origin metadata. The functions do not modify the structs, which is enforced by the const qualifier.

Variant candidates
Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
