It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-2602 exists.\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-2022-2602/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2602/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-2602","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2602/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-2602","record":{"aliases":["AZL-33262","DEBIAN-CVE-2022-2602","OESA-2022-2069","OESA-2022-2070","SUSE-SU-2023:0339-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-2602"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's io_uring Unix SCM garbage collection allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"canonical","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"io_uring UAF, Unix SCM garbage collection","ecosystems":["SUSE:Linux Enterprise Live Patching 15 SP3"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2022-11-18","github_poc":3,"max_poc_stars":86,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2022-12-20T12:16:38Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/kiks7/CVE-2022-2602-Kernel-Exploit","stars":86,"title":null},{"date":"2022-11-18T18:53:27Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/LukeGix/CVE-2022-2602","stars":85,"title":"CVE-2022-2602"},{"date":"2023-01-09T13:21:02Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/th3-5had0w/CVE-2022-2602-Study","stars":1,"title":null}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Use after free in linux","id":"CVE-2022-2602","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2022"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in Chrome","id":"CVE-2022-2603"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Live Patching 15 SP3","fixed":["3-150300.2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"kernel-livepatch-SLE15-SP3_Update_26","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/kernel-livepatch-SLE15-SP3_Update_26\u0026distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Live%20Patching%2015%20SP3","source":"SUSE-SU-2023:0339-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in grub2","id":"CVE-2022-2601"},"products":["linux"],"published":"2024-01-08","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":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"SUSE"},{"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)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-14","vendors":["The Linux Kernel Organization"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's io_uring Unix SCM garbage collection allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2602/"}
