In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: imx-jpeg: Prevent decoding NV12M jpegs into single-planar buffers

If the application queues an NV12M jpeg as output buffer, but then queues a single planar capture buffer, the kernel will crash with "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference" in mxc_jpeg_addrs, prevent this by finishing the job with error.
