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-2022-48811 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-2022-48811/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48811/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-48811","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48811/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-48811","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-48811","GHSA-rwf6-2rvc-66m9","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2022-48811","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-48811"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the ibmvnic driver causes a kernel crash when handling specific network interface errors.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"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":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nibmvnic: don't release napi in __ibmvnic_open()\n\nIf __ibmvnic_open() encounters an error such as when setting link state,\nit calls release_resources() which frees the napi structures needlessly.\nInstead, have __ibmvnic_open() only clean up the work it did so far (i.e.\ndisable napi and irqs) and leave the rest to the callers.\n\nIf caller of __ibmvnic_open() is ibmvnic_open(), it should release the\nresources immediately.
