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-2023-52574 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-2023-52574/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52574/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-52574","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52574/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-52574","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-52574","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-52574","GHSA-6vm2-4jg8-fq6m","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-52574"],"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 null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel team driver allows local attackers to cause a system crash by changing device types.","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":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-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nteam: fix null-ptr-deref when team device type is changed\n\nGet a null-ptr-deref bug as follows with reproducer [1].\n\nBUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000228\n...\nRIP: 0010:vlan_dev_hard_header+0x35/0x140 [8021q]\n...\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n ? __die+0x24/0x70\n ? page_fault_oops+0x82/0x150\n ? exc_page_fault+0x69/0x150\n ? asm_exc_page_fault+0x26/0x30\n ? vlan_dev_hard_header+0x35/0x140 [8021q]\n ? vlan_dev_hard_header+0x8e/0x140 [8021q]\n neigh_connected_output+0xb2/0x100\n ip6_finish_output2+0x1cb/0x520\n ? nf_hook_slow+0x43/0xc0\n ? ip6_mtu+0x46/0x80\n ip6_finish_output+0x2a/0xb0\n mld_sendpack+0x18f/0x250\n mld_ifc_work+0x39/0x160\n process_one_work+0x1e6/0x3f0\n worker_thread+0x4d/0x2f0\n ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10\n kthread+0xe5/0x120\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork+0x34/0x50\n ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1b/0x30\n\n[1]\n$ teamd -t team0 -d -c '{\"runner\": {\"name\": \"loadbalance\"}}'\n$ ip link add name t-dummy type dummy\n$ ip link add link t-dummy name t-dummy.100 type vlan id 100\n$ ip link add name t-nlmon type nlmon\n$ ip link set t-nlmon master team0\n$ ip link set t-nlmon nomaster\n$ ip link set t-dummy up\n$ ip link set team0 up\n$ ip link set t-dummy.100 down\n$ ip link set t-dummy.100 master team0\n\nWhen enslave a vlan device to team device and team device type is changed\nfrom non-ether to ether, header_ops of team device is changed to\nvlan_header_ops.
