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-2022-49842 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-2022-49842/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49842/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-49842","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49842/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-49842","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49842","GHSA-8r89-r77h-8gvm","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49842"],"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 use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ASoC core allows local attackers to cause a system crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","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-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nASoC: core: Fix use-after-free in snd_soc_exit()\n\nKASAN reports a use-after-free:\n\nBUG: KASAN: use-after-free in device_del+0xb5b/0xc60\nRead of size 8 at addr ffff888008655050 by task rmmod/387\nCPU: 2 PID: 387 Comm: rmmod\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)\nCall Trace:\n\u003cTASK\u003e\ndump_stack_lvl+0x79/0x9a\nprint_report+0x17f/0x47b\nkasan_report+0xbb/0xf0\ndevice_del+0xb5b/0xc60\nplatform_device_del.part.0+0x24/0x200\nplatform_device_unregister+0x2e/0x40\nsnd_soc_exit+0xa/0x22 [snd_soc_core]\n__do_sys_delete_module.constprop.0+0x34f/0x5b0\ndo_syscall_64+0x3a/0x90\nentry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd\n...\n\u003c/TASK\u003e\n\nIt's bacause in snd_soc_init(), snd_soc_util_init() is possble to fail,\nbut its ret is ignored, which makes soc_dummy_dev unregistered twice.\n\nsnd_soc_init()\n    snd_soc_util_init()\n        platform_device_register_simple(soc_dummy_dev)\n        platform_driver_register() # fail\n    \tplatform_device_unregister(soc_dummy_dev)\n    platform_driver_register() # success\n...\nsnd_soc_exit()\n    snd_soc_util_exit()\n    # soc_dummy_dev will be unregistered for second time\n\nTo fix it, handle error and stop snd_soc_init() when util_init() fail.\nAlso clean debugfs when util_init() or driver_register() fail.","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":"ASoC: core: Fix use-after-free in snd_soc_exit()","id":"CVE-2022-49842","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority.","id":"CVE-2022-49843"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"serial: imx: Add missing .thaw_noirq hook","id":"CVE-2022-49841"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-05-01","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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ASoC core allows local attackers to cause a system crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49842/"}
