UBUNTU-CVE-2026-98915: Medium severity ubuntu/linux vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: video-i2c: use vb2videounregisterdevice on driver removal The driver uses vb2foprelease() as its file release operation, so vb2videounregisterdevice() should be used instead of videounregisterdevice() during driver removal. This ensures that the vb2 queue is properly disconnected before the video device is unregistered.
