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-2023-54040 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-2023-54040/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54040/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54040","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54040/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54040","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54040","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54040","GHSA-jp7h-x2g7-335v","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54040"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A logic error in the Intel ice network driver causes memory leaks and inconsistent states during filter failures, potentially leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nice: fix wrong fallback logic for FDIR\n\nWhen adding a FDIR filter, if ice_vc_fdir_set_irq_ctx returns failure,\nthe inserted fdir entry will not be removed and if ice_vc_fdir_write_fltr\nreturns failure, the fdir context info for irq handler will not be cleared\nwhich may lead to inconsistent or memory leak issue.
