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-2023-54186 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-2023-54186/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54186/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54186","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54186/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54186","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54186","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54186","GHSA-xgf9-7jgm-fgxp","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54186"],"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":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's USB Type-C DisplayPort driver allows local attackers to cause a system crash via negative array indexing.","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\nusb: typec: altmodes/displayport: fix pin_assignment_show\n\nThis patch fixes negative indexing of buf array in pin_assignment_show\nwhen get_current_pin_assignments returns 0 i.e. no compatible pin\nassignments are found.\n\nBUG: KASAN: use-after-free in pin_assignment_show+0x26c/0x33c\n...\nCall trace:\ndump_backtrace+0x110/0x204\ndump_stack_lvl+0x84/0xbc\nprint_report+0x358/0x974\nkasan_report+0x9c/0xfc\n__do_kernel_fault+0xd4/0x2d4\ndo_bad_area+0x48/0x168\ndo_tag_check_fault+0x24/0x38\ndo_mem_abort+0x6c/0x14c\nel1_abort+0x44/0x68\nel1h_64_sync_handler+0x64/0xa4\nel1h_64_sync+0x78/0x7c\npin_assignment_show+0x26c/0x33c\ndev_attr_show+0x50/0xc0","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":"usb: typec: altmodes/displayport: fix pin_assignment_show","id":"CVE-2023-54186","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"f2fs: fix potential corruption when moving a directory","id":"CVE-2023-54187"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"btrfs: remove BUG_ON()'s in add_new_free_space()","id":"CVE-2023-54185"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-12-30","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-05","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's USB Type-C DisplayPort driver allows local attackers to cause a system crash via negative array indexing.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54186/"}
