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-2023-54127 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-2023-54127/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54127/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54127","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54127/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54127","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54127","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54127","GHSA-pfr2-326c-2j2w","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54127"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel JFS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A double-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel JFS filesystem allows local attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfs/jfs: prevent double-free in dbUnmount() after failed jfs_remount()\n\nSyzkaller reported the following issue:\n==================================================================\nBUG: KASAN: double-free in slab_free mm/slub.c:3787 [inline]\nBUG: KASAN: double-free in __kmem_cache_free+0x71/0x110 mm/slub.c:3800\nFree of addr ffff888086408000 by task syz-executor.4/12750\n[...]\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n[...]\n kasan_report_invalid_free+0xac/0xd0 mm/kasan/report.c:482\n ____kasan_slab_free+0xfb/0x120\n kasan_slab_free include/linux/kasan.h:177 [inline]\n slab_free_hook mm/slub.c:1781 [inline]\n slab_free_freelist_hook+0x12e/0x1a0 mm/slub.c:1807\n slab_free mm/slub.c:3787 [inline]\n __kmem_cache_free+0x71/0x110 mm/slub.c:3800\n dbUnmount+0xf4/0x110 fs/jfs/jfs_dmap.c:264\n jfs_umount+0x248/0x3b0 fs/jfs/jfs_umount.c:87\n jfs_put_super+0x86/0x190 fs/jfs/super.c:194\n generic_shutdown_super+0x130/0x310 fs/super.c:492\n kill_block_super+0x79/0xd0 fs/super.c:1386\n deactivate_locked_super+0xa7/0xf0 fs/super.c:332\n cleanup_mnt+0x494/0x520 fs/namespace.c:1291\n task_work_run+0x243/0x300 kernel/task_work.c:179\n resume_user_mode_work include/linux/resume_user_mode.h:49 [inline]\n exit_to_user_mode_loop+0x124/0x150 kernel/entry/common.c:171\n exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0xb2/0x140 kernel/entry/common.c:203\n __syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work kernel/entry/common.c:285 [inline]\n syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x26/0x60 kernel/entry/common.c:296\n do_syscall_64+0x49/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:86\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd\n[...]\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\nAllocated by task 13352:\n kasan_save_stack mm/kasan/common.c:45 [inline]\n kasan_set_track+0x3d/0x60 mm/kasan/common.c:52\n ____kasan_kmalloc mm/kasan/common.c:371 [inline]\n __kasan_kmalloc+0x97/0xb0 mm/kasan/common.c:380\n kmalloc include/linux/slab.h:580 [inline]\n dbMount+0x54/0x980 fs/jfs/jfs_dmap.c:164\n jfs_mount+0x1dd/0x830 fs/jfs/jfs_mount.c:121\n jfs_fill_super+0x590/0xc50 fs/jfs/super.c:556\n mount_bdev+0x26c/0x3a0 fs/super.c:1359\n legacy_get_tree+0xea/0x180 fs/fs_context.c:610\n vfs_get_tree+0x88/0x270 fs/super.c:1489\n do_new_mount+0x289/0xad0 fs/namespace.c:3145\n do_mount fs/namespace.c:3488 [inline]\n __do_sys_mount fs/namespace.c:3697 [inline]\n __se_sys_mount+0x2d3/0x3c0 fs/namespace.c:3674\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0x3d/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd\n\nFreed by task 13352:\n kasan_save_stack mm/kasan/common.c:45 [inline]\n kasan_set_track+0x3d/0x60 mm/kasan/common.c:52\n kasan_save_free_info+0x27/0x40 mm/kasan/generic.c:518\n ____kasan_slab_free+0xd6/0x120 mm/kasan/common.c:236\n kasan_slab_free include/linux/kasan.h:177 [inline]\n slab_free_hook mm/slub.c:1781 [inline]\n slab_free_freelist_hook+0x12e/0x1a0 mm/slub.c:1807\n slab_free mm/slub.c:3787 [inline]\n __kmem_cache_free+0x71/0x110 mm/slub.c:3800\n dbUnmount+0xf4/0x110 fs/jfs/jfs_dmap.c:264\n jfs_mount_rw+0x545/0x740 fs/jfs/jfs_mount.c:247\n jfs_remount+0x3db/0x710 fs/jfs/super.c:454\n reconfigure_super+0x3bc/0x7b0 fs/super.c:935\n vfs_fsconfig_locked fs/fsopen.c:254 [inline]\n __do_sys_fsconfig fs/fsopen.c:439 [inline]\n __se_sys_fsconfig+0xad5/0x1060 fs/fsopen.c:314\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0x3d/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd\n[...]\n\nJFS_SBI(ipbmap-\u003ei_sb)-\u003ebmap wasn't set to NULL after kfree() in\ndbUnmount().\n\nSyzkaller uses faultinject to reproduce this KASAN double-free\nwarning.
