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-2023-52994 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-2023-52994/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52994/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-52994","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52994/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-52994","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2023-52994","GHSA-2g84-5882-fhcm","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-52994"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel ACPI subsystem causes a system crash when suspending under Xen PV.","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":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","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-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nacpi: Fix suspend with Xen PV\n\nCommit f1e525009493 (\"x86/boot: Skip realmode init code when running as\nXen PV guest\") missed one code path accessing real_mode_header, leading\nto dereferencing NULL when suspending the system under Xen:\n\n    [  348.284004] PM: suspend entry (deep)\n    [  348.289532] Filesystems sync: 0.005 seconds\n    [  348.291545] Freezing user space processes ...
