CVE-2022-50757 — media: camss: Clean up received buffers on failed start of streaming
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: camss: Clean up received buffers on failed start of streaming It is required to return the received buffers, if streaming can not be started. For instance media_pipeline_start() may fail with EPIPE, if a link validation between entities is not passed, and in such a case a user gets a kernel warning: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 520 at drivers/media/common/videobuf2/videobuf2-core.c:1592 vb2_start_streaming+0xec/0x160 <snip> Call trace: vb2_start_streaming+0xec/0x160 vb2_core_streamon+0x9c/0x1a0 vb2_ioctl_streamon+0x68/0xbc v4l_streamon+0x30/0x3c __video_do_ioctl+0x184/0x3e0 video_usercopy+0x37c/0x7b0 video_ioctl2+0x24/0x40 v4l2_ioctl+0x4c/0x70 The fix is to correct the error path in video_start_streaming() of camss.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+1
- Technical severity (high)+6
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linux Linux).
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes, errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2022-50757 is "media: camss: Clean up received buffers on failed start of streaming", rated High. It affects Linux (Linux); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 7.8 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.20% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context.
