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-2023-53792 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. 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-2023-53792/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53792/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-53792","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53792/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-53792","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-53792","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-53792","GHSA-fcxh-7g3m-939f","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-53792"],"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":"high_privilege","summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel NVMe driver allows local attackers to cause denial of service by exhausting system memory.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnvme-core: fix memory leak in dhchap_ctrl_secret\n\nFree dhchap_secret in nvme_ctrl_dhchap_ctrl_secret_store() before we\nreturn when nvme_auth_generate_key() returns error.","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":"nvme-core: fix memory leak in dhchap_ctrl_secret","id":"CVE-2023-53792","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"perf tool x86: Fix perf_env memory leak","id":"CVE-2023-53793"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"md: fix warning for holder mismatch from export_rdev()","id":"CVE-2023-53791"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-12-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel NVMe driver allows local attackers to cause denial of service by exhausting system memory.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53792/"}
