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-2023-53075 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-2023-53075/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53075/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-53075","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53075/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-53075","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-53075","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53075","GHSA-7m36-cvpv-mmfp","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-53075"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"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 ftrace subsystem allows attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute code via crafted module loading.","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":"nvd","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\nftrace: Fix invalid address access in lookup_rec() when index is 0\n\nKASAN reported follow problem:\n\n BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in lookup_rec\n Read of size 8 at addr ffff000199270ff0 by task modprobe\n CPU: 2 Comm: modprobe\n Call trace:\n  kasan_report\n  __asan_load8\n  lookup_rec\n  ftrace_location\n  arch_check_ftrace_location\n  check_kprobe_address_safe\n  register_kprobe\n\nWhen checking pg-\u003erecords[pg-\u003eindex - 1].ip in lookup_rec(), it can get a\npg which is newly added to ftrace_pages_start in ftrace_process_locs().\nBefore the first pg-\u003eindex++, index is 0 and accessing pg-\u003erecords[-1].ip\nwill cause this problem.\n\nDon't check the ip when pg-\u003eindex is 0.","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":"ftrace: Fix invalid address access in lookup_rec() when index is 0","id":"CVE-2023-53075","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority.","id":"CVE-2023-53076"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"drm/amdgpu: fix ttm_bo calltrace warning in psp_hw_fini","id":"CVE-2023-53074"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-05-02","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":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel ftrace subsystem allows attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute code via crafted module loading.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53075/"}
