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-2023-54113 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-2023-54113/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54113/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54113","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54113/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54113","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54113","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54113","GHSA-qc6c-57rr-4q4v","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54113"],"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":"none","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel RCU subsystem can cause a spinlock deadlock, leading to a system crash or denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"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\nrcu: dump vmalloc memory info safely\n\nCurrently, for double invoke call_rcu(), will dump rcu_head objects memory\ninfo, if the objects is not allocated from the slab allocator, the\nvmalloc_dump_obj() will be invoke and the vmap_area_lock spinlock need to\nbe held, since the call_rcu() can be invoked in interrupt context,\ntherefore, there is a possibility of spinlock deadlock scenarios.\n\nAnd in Preempt-RT kernel, the rcutorture test also trigger the following\nlockdep warning:\n\nBUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48\nin_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper/0\npreempt_count: 1, expected: 0\nRCU nest depth: 1, expected: 1\n3 locks held by swapper/0/1:\n #0: ffffffffb534ee80 (fullstop_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: torture_init_begin+0x24/0xa0\n #1: ffffffffb5307940 (rcu_read_lock){....}-{1:3}, at: rcu_torture_init+0x1ec7/0x2370\n #2: ffffffffb536af40 (vmap_area_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: find_vmap_area+0x1f/0x70\nirq event stamp: 565512\nhardirqs last  enabled at (565511): [\u003cffffffffb379b138\u003e] __call_rcu_common+0x218/0x940\nhardirqs last disabled at (565512): [\u003cffffffffb5804262\u003e] rcu_torture_init+0x20b2/0x2370\nsoftirqs last  enabled at (399112): [\u003cffffffffb36b2586\u003e] __local_bh_enable_ip+0x126/0x170\nsoftirqs last disabled at (399106): [\u003cffffffffb43fef59\u003e] inet_register_protosw+0x9/0x1d0\nPreemption disabled at:\n[\u003cffffffffb58040c3\u003e] rcu_torture_init+0x1f13/0x2370\nCPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G        W          6.5.0-rc4-rt2-yocto-preempt-rt+ #15\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.16.2-0-gea1b7a073390-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0xb0\n dump_stack+0x14/0x20\n __might_resched+0x1aa/0x280\n ? __pfx_rcu_torture_err_cb+0x10/0x10\n rt_spin_lock+0x53/0x130\n ? find_vmap_area+0x1f/0x70\n find_vmap_area+0x1f/0x70\n vmalloc_dump_obj+0x20/0x60\n mem_dump_obj+0x22/0x90\n __call_rcu_common+0x5bf/0x940\n ? debug_smp_processor_id+0x1b/0x30\n call_rcu_hurry+0x14/0x20\n rcu_torture_init+0x1f82/0x2370\n ? __pfx_rcu_torture_leak_cb+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_rcu_torture_leak_cb+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_rcu_torture_init+0x10/0x10\n do_one_initcall+0x6c/0x300\n ? debug_smp_processor_id+0x1b/0x30\n kernel_init_freeable+0x2b9/0x540\n ? __pfx_kernel_init+0x10/0x10\n kernel_init+0x1f/0x150\n ret_from_fork+0x40/0x50\n ? __pfx_kernel_init+0x10/0x10\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1b/0x30\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\nThe previous patch fixes this by using the deadlock-safe best-effort\nversion of find_vm_area.
