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-2024-26773 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian 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-2024-26773/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-26773/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-26773","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-26773/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-26773","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-26773","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-26773","GHSA-j648-rgv6-ccc8","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-26773"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel ext4","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel ext4 filesystem allows allocating blocks from a corrupted group, potentially leading to system instability or denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"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\next4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_try_best_found()\n\nDetermine if the group block bitmap is corrupted before using ac_b_ex in\next4_mb_try_best_found() to avoid allocating blocks from a group with a\ncorrupted block bitmap in the following concurrency and making the\nsituation worse.\n\next4_mb_regular_allocator\n  ext4_lock_group(sb, group)\n  ext4_mb_good_group\n   // check if the group bbitmap is corrupted\n  ext4_mb_complex_scan_group\n   // Scan group gets ac_b_ex but doesn't use it\n  ext4_unlock_group(sb, group)\n                           ext4_mark_group_bitmap_corrupted(group)\n                           // The block bitmap was corrupted during\n                           // the group unlock gap.\n  ext4_mb_try_best_found\n    ext4_lock_group(ac-\u003eac_sb, group)\n    ext4_mb_use_best_found\n      mb_mark_used\n      // Allocating blocks in block bitmap corrupted group","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":"ext4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_try_best_found()","id":"CVE-2024-26773","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"debian:debian_linux","products":["debian:debian_linux","linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"ext4: avoid dividing by 0 in mb_update_avg_fragment_size() when block bitmap corrupt","id":"CVE-2024-26774"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ext4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_find_by_goal()","id":"CVE-2024-26772"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2024-04-03","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"ProFTPD Improper Access Control","id":"CVE-2015-3306","kev_date_added":"2026-10-08","published":"2015-05-18"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"RoundCube Webmail Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-49113","kev_date_added":"2026-02-20","published":"2025-06-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU InetUtils Argument Injection","id":"CVE-2026-24061","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2026-01-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions","id":"CVE-2025-39682","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-09-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2024-9680","kev_date_added":"2024-10-15","published":"2024-10-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"RARLAB UnRAR Directory Traversal","id":"CVE-2022-30333","kev_date_added":"2022-08-09","published":"2022-05-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Roundcube Webmail SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-44026","kev_date_added":"2023-06-22","published":"2021-11-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel ext4 filesystem allows allocating blocks from a corrupted group, potentially leading to system instability or denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-26773/"}
