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-2023-54154 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-2023-54154/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54154/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54154","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54154/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54154","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54154","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54154","GHSA-35f8-m7gp-7vmp","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54154"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel SCSI target","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel SCSI target core allows local attackers to exhaust system memory, causing denial of service.","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\nscsi: target: core: Fix target_cmd_counter leak\n\nThe target_cmd_counter struct allocated via target_alloc_cmd_counter() is\nnever freed, resulting in leaks across various transport types, e.g.:\n\n unreferenced object 0xffff88801f920120 (size 96):\n  comm \"sh\", pid 102, jiffies 4294892535 (age 713.412s)\n  hex dump (first 32 bytes):\n    07 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  ................\n    00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 38 01 92 1f 80 88 ff ff  ........8.......\n  backtrace:\n    [\u003c00000000e58a6252\u003e] kmalloc_trace+0x11/0x20\n    [\u003c0000000043af4b2f\u003e] target_alloc_cmd_counter+0x17/0x90 [target_core_mod]\n    [\u003c000000007da2dfa7\u003e] target_setup_session+0x2d/0x140 [target_core_mod]\n    [\u003c0000000068feef86\u003e] tcm_loop_tpg_nexus_store+0x19b/0x350 [tcm_loop]\n    [\u003c000000006a80e021\u003e] configfs_write_iter+0xb1/0x120\n    [\u003c00000000e9f4d860\u003e] vfs_write+0x2e4/0x3c0\n    [\u003c000000008143433b\u003e] ksys_write+0x80/0xb0\n    [\u003c00000000a7df29b2\u003e] do_syscall_64+0x42/0x90\n    [\u003c0000000053f45fb8\u003e] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x6e/0xd8\n\nFree the structure alongside the corresponding iscsit_conn / se_sess\nparent.","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":"scsi: target: core: Fix target_cmd_counter leak","id":"CVE-2023-54154","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"net: core: remove unnecessary frame_sz check in bpf_xdp_adjust_tail()","id":"CVE-2023-54155"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ext4: turn quotas off if mount failed after enabling quotas","id":"CVE-2023-54153"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-12-24","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":"2026-05-23","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel SCSI target core allows local attackers to exhaust system memory, causing denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54154/"}
