An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-52885 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-2023-52885/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52885/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-52885","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52885/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-52885","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-52885","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-52885","GHSA-p7rj-mgww-3q4f","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-52885"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel SUNRPC","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's SUNRPC module allows attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute code via race conditions during NFS listener shutdown.","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":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/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\nSUNRPC: Fix UAF in svc_tcp_listen_data_ready()\n\nAfter the listener svc_sock is freed, and before invoking svc_tcp_accept()\nfor the established child sock, there is a window that the newsock\nretaining a freed listener svc_sock in sk_user_data which cloning from\nparent.
