It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-15129 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15129/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15129/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-15129","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15129/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-15129","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-15129","GHSA-9324-w9gg-mxf6","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-15129"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged local user can trigger a use-after-free in network namespaces, causing kernel crashes and potentially enabling privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_compute_node_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_ibm_z_systems","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_ibm_z_systems_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_power_big_endian","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_power_big_endian_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_power_little_endian_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_real_time","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_real_time_for_nfv","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_for_scientific_computing","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_aus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_tus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_update_services_for_sap_solutions","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_workstation","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"A use-after-free vulnerability was found in network namespaces code affecting the Linux kernel before 4.14.11. The function get_net_ns_by_id() in net/core/net_namespace.c does not check for the net::count value after it has found a peer network in netns_ids idr, which could lead to double free and memory corruption. This vulnerability could allow an unprivileged local user to induce kernel memory corruption on the system, leading to a crash. Due to the nature of the flaw, privilege escalation cannot be fully ruled out, although it is thought to be unlikely.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Use after free in Linux kernel v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc5","id":"CVE-2017-15129","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","fedoraproject:fedora","linux:linux_kernel","redhat:enterprise_linux","redhat:enterprise_linux_desktop","redhat:enterprise_linux_eus","redhat:enterprise_linux_for_ibm_z_systems","redhat:enterprise_linux_for_ibm_z_systems_eus","redhat:enterprise_linux_for_power_little_endian_eus","redhat:enterprise_linux_for_scientific_computing","redhat:enterprise_linux_server","redhat:enterprise_linux_server_aus","redhat:enterprise_linux_server_tus","redhat:enterprise_linux_workstation"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":19,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in dovecot","id":"CVE-2017-15130"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in Linux kernel before 4.13.12","id":"CVE-2017-15128"},"products":["Linux kernel v4.0-rc1 through v4.15-rc5"],"published":"2018-01-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SaltStack Salt Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-11651","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"OpenSMTPD Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-7247","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2020-01-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Out-of-bounds Write","id":"CVE-2019-16928","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2019-09-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2018-6789","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2018-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-2590","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2015-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle JRE Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2013-0422","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2013-01-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2011-3544","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2011-10-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An unprivileged local user can trigger a use-after-free in network namespaces, causing kernel crashes and potentially enabling privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15129/"}
