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-2023-54324 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-2023-54324/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54324/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-54324","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-54324/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-54324","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2023-54324","DEBIAN-CVE-2023-54324","GHSA-jp9m-rpm6-97j7","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2023-54324","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2023-54324","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-54324"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel device-mapper multipath target allows local attackers to trigger memory corruption or use-after-free, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"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\ndm: fix a race condition in retrieve_deps\n\nThere's a race condition in the multipath target when retrieve_deps\nraces with multipath_message calling dm_get_device and dm_put_device.\nretrieve_deps walks the list of open devices without holding any lock\nbut multipath may add or remove devices to the list while it is\nrunning.
