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-2023-53332 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-2023-53332/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53332/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-53332","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53332/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-53332","record":{"aliases":["AZL-71888","BELL-CVE-2023-53332","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53332","GHSA-4wpf-x7jv-xgqj","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2023-53332","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2023-53332","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-53332"],"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 missing NULL pointer check in the Linux kernel's IPI handling allows a local attacker to trigger a kernel oops and cause a denial of service.","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\ngenirq/ipi: Fix NULL pointer deref in irq_data_get_affinity_mask()\n\nIf ipi_send_{mask|single}() is called with an invalid interrupt number, all\nthe local variables there will be NULL. ipi_send_verify() which is invoked\nfrom these functions does verify its 'data' parameter, resulting in a\nkernel oops in irq_data_get_affinity_mask() as the passed NULL pointer gets\ndereferenced.\n\nAdd a missing NULL pointer check in ipi_send_verify()...\n\nFound by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static\nanalysis tool.","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":"genirq/ipi: Fix NULL pointer deref in irq_data_get_affinity_mask()","id":"CVE-2023-53332","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"netfilter: conntrack: dccp: copy entire header to stack buffer, not just basic one","id":"CVE-2023-53333"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"pstore/ram: Check start of empty przs during init","id":"CVE-2023-53331"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-09-16","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A missing NULL pointer check in the Linux kernel's IPI handling allows a local attacker to trigger a kernel oops and cause a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53332/"}
