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-2023-54221 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-2023-54221/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54221/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54221","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54221/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54221","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54221","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54221","GHSA-c6v6-34rg-jgwv","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54221"],"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 memory leak and missing unwind in the Linux kernel i.MX93 clock driver can lead to resource exhaustion and 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\nclk: imx93: fix memory leak and missing unwind goto in imx93_clocks_probe\n\nIn function probe(), it returns directly without unregistered hws\nwhen error occurs.\n\nFix this by adding 'goto unregister_hws;' on line 295 and\nline 310.\n\nUse devm_kzalloc() instead of kzalloc() to automatically\nfree the memory using devm_kfree() when error occurs.\n\nReplace of_iomap() with devm_of_iomap() to automatically\nhandle the unused ioremap region and delete 'iounmap(anatop_base);'\nin unregister_hws.","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":"clk: imx93: fix memory leak and missing unwind goto in imx93_clocks_probe","id":"CVE-2023-54221","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"hte: tegra-194: Fix off by one in tegra_hte_map_to_line_id()","id":"CVE-2023-54222"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"serial: 8250: Fix oops for port-\u003epm on uart_change_pm()","id":"CVE-2023-54220"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-12-30","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":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A memory leak and missing unwind in the Linux kernel i.MX93 clock driver can lead to resource exhaustion and denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54221/"}
