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-2022-48659 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. 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-2022-48659/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48659/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-48659","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48659/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-48659","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-48659","GHSA-rvvv-6c8w-v73w","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-48659"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can trigger a kernel panic by exhausting memory during F2FS filesystem mounting, causing a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmm/slub: fix to return errno if kmalloc() fails\n\nIn create_unique_id(), kmalloc(, GFP_KERNEL) can fail due to\nout-of-memory, if it fails, return errno correctly rather than\ntriggering panic via BUG_ON();\n\nkernel BUG at mm/slub.c:5893!\nInternal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP\n\nCall trace:\n sysfs_slab_add+0x258/0x260 mm/slub.c:5973\n __kmem_cache_create+0x60/0x118 mm/slub.c:4899\n create_cache mm/slab_common.c:229 [inline]\n kmem_cache_create_usercopy+0x19c/0x31c mm/slab_common.c:335\n kmem_cache_create+0x1c/0x28 mm/slab_common.c:390\n f2fs_kmem_cache_create fs/f2fs/f2fs.h:2766 [inline]\n f2fs_init_xattr_caches+0x78/0xb4 fs/f2fs/xattr.c:808\n f2fs_fill_super+0x1050/0x1e0c fs/f2fs/super.c:4149\n mount_bdev+0x1b8/0x210 fs/super.c:1400\n f2fs_mount+0x44/0x58 fs/f2fs/super.c:4512\n legacy_get_tree+0x30/0x74 fs/fs_context.c:610\n vfs_get_tree+0x40/0x140 fs/super.c:1530\n do_new_mount+0x1dc/0x4e4 fs/namespace.c:3040\n path_mount+0x358/0x914 fs/namespace.c:3370\n do_mount fs/namespace.c:3383 [inline]\n __do_sys_mount fs/namespace.c:3591 [inline]\n __se_sys_mount fs/namespace.c:3568 [inline]\n __arm64_sys_mount+0x2f8/0x408 fs/namespace.c:3568","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":"mm/slub: fix to return errno if kmalloc() fails","id":"CVE-2022-48659","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"gpiolib: cdev: Set lineevent_state::irq after IRQ register successfully","id":"CVE-2022-48660"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"mm: slub: fix flush_cpu_slab()/__free_slab() invocations in task context.","id":"CVE-2022-48658"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2024-04-28","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A local attacker can trigger a kernel panic by exhausting memory during F2FS filesystem mounting, causing a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48659/"}
