Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's vidtv media component. This issue arises from functions incorrectly passing data structures by value, which can lead to MemorySanitizer (MSAN) reporting uninitialized value warnings. Such warnings indicate a risk of memory corruption or undefined behavior, which could potentially be exploited by a local attacker to impact system stability or integrity.

Mitigation
