CVE-2026-68207

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's media Video Processing Engine (VPE) driver. This issue occurs during device initialization when a specific resource is unavailable, causing the device to remain improperly registered. As a result, system resources are not correctly released, which could lead to resource exhaustion or system instability. An attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service (DoS), making the system unresponsive or unavailable.

This issue affects TI VPE video processor on OMAP. v4l2_device_register succeeds but probe returns early without unregister on missing resource. Embedded OMAP VPE only.
