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-2023-54129 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-2023-54129/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54129/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54129","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54129/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54129","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54129","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54129","GHSA-646g-pwv5-gp8f","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2023-54129","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2023-54129","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54129"],"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":"none","summary":"A missing validation in the octeontx2-af driver causes a kernel panic when firmware reports an invalid lmac_type_id, leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nocteontx2-af: Add validation for lmac type\n\nUpon physical link change, firmware reports to the kernel about the\nchange along with the details like speed, lmac_type_id, etc.\nKernel derives lmac_type based on lmac_type_id received from firmware.\n\nIn a few scenarios, firmware returns an invalid lmac_type_id, which\nis resulting in below kernel panic.
