CVE-2024-53104 is an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the Linux kernel's USB Video Class driver, specifically in the uvcvideo parsing logic. The flaw arises because frames of type UVC_VS_UNDEFINED were not accounted for when calculating the size of the frames buffer in uvc_parse_streaming, while related parsing in uvc_parse_format could still process those frames. This mismatch could cause memory to be written past the end of the allocated buffer during malformed USB video descriptor parsing. The issue affects the kernel UVC subsystem and has been described as a privilege-escalation vulnerability on Android and Linux systems that expose the vulnerable driver path.
