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-2022-49062 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-2022-49062/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49062/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-49062","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49062/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-49062","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49062","GHSA-m92m-chq3-5gfq","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49062"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A slab-out-of-bounds write in the Linux kernel cachefiles module allows attackers to cause memory corruption, potentially leading to system crashes or arbitrary code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ncachefiles: Fix KASAN slab-out-of-bounds in cachefiles_set_volume_xattr\n\nUse the actual length of volume coherency data when setting the\nxattr to avoid the following KASAN report.\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in cachefiles_set_volume_xattr+0xa0/0x350 [cachefiles]\n Write of size 4 at addr ffff888101e02af4 by task kworker/6:0/1347\n\n CPU: 6 PID: 1347 Comm: kworker/6:0 Kdump: loaded Not tainted 5.18.0-rc1-nfs-fscache-netfs+ #13\n Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.14.0-4.fc34 04/01/2014\n Workqueue: events fscache_create_volume_work [fscache]\n Call Trace:\n  \u003cTASK\u003e\n  dump_stack_lvl+0x45/0x5a\n  print_report.cold+0x5e/0x5db\n  ?
