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-2022-49248 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-2022-49248/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49248/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-49248","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49248/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-49248","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49248","GHSA-2583-337f-6vp9","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49248"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel ALSA","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An uninitialized flag in the Linux kernel ALSA firewire driver can cause a UBSAN error and potential system instability during AV/C transactions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"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-908","name":"Use of Uninitialized Resource"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nALSA: firewire-lib: fix uninitialized flag for AV/C deferred transaction\n\nAV/C deferred transaction was supported at a commit 00a7bb81c20f (\"ALSA:\nfirewire-lib: Add support for deferred transaction\") while 'deferrable'\nflag can be uninitialized for non-control/notify AV/C transactions.\nUBSAN reports it:\n\nkernel: ================================================================================\nkernel: UBSAN: invalid-load in /build/linux-aa0B4d/linux-5.15.0/sound/firewire/fcp.c:363:9\nkernel: load of value 158 is not a valid value for type '_Bool'\nkernel: CPU: 3 PID: 182227 Comm: irq/35-firewire Tainted: P           OE     5.15.0-18-generic #18-Ubuntu\nkernel: Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
