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-2023-54276 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-2023-54276/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54276/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54276","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54276/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54276","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54276","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54276","GHSA-4hqq-5h4g-jhph","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54276"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged local user can cause a kernel crash by reading a specific proc file when the NFS daemon is not started on non-x86_64 architectures.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"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\nnfsd: move init of percpu reply_cache_stats counters back to nfsd_init_net\n\nCommit f5f9d4a314da (\"nfsd: move reply cache initialization into nfsd\nstartup\") moved the initialization of the reply cache into nfsd startup,\nbut didn't account for the stats counters, which can be accessed before\nnfsd is ever started.
