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-2023-53622 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-2023-53622/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53622/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-53622","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53622/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-53622","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-53622","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53622","GHSA-7fh7-rm8f-wj9x","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-53622"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel GFS2 filesystem allows concurrent access to tune parameters without proper locking, potentially leading to data inconsistencies or system instability.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ngfs2: Fix possible data races in gfs2_show_options()\n\nSome fields such as gt_logd_secs of the struct gfs2_tune are accessed\nwithout holding the lock gt_spin in gfs2_show_options():\n\n  val = sdp-\u003esd_tune.gt_logd_secs;\n  if (val != 30)\n    seq_printf(s, \",commit=%d\", val);\n\nAnd thus can cause data races when gfs2_show_options() and other functions\nsuch as gfs2_reconfigure() are concurrently executed:\n\n  spin_lock(\u0026gt-\u003egt_spin);\n  gt-\u003egt_logd_secs = newargs-\u003ear_commit;\n\nTo fix these possible data races, the lock sdp-\u003esd_tune.gt_spin is\nacquired before accessing the fields of gfs2_tune and released after these\naccesses.\n\nFurther changes by Andreas:\n\n- Don't hold the spin lock over the seq_printf operations.","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":"gfs2: Fix possible data races in gfs2_show_options()","id":"CVE-2023-53622","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"mm/swap: fix swap_info_struct race between swapoff and get_swap_pages()","id":"CVE-2023-53623"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"memcontrol: ensure memcg acquired by id is properly set up","id":"CVE-2023-53621"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-10-07","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 race condition in the Linux kernel GFS2 filesystem allows concurrent access to tune parameters without proper locking, potentially leading to data inconsistencies or system instability.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53622/"}
