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-2024-27031 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. 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-2024-27031/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-27031/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-27031","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-27031/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-27031","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-27031","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-27031","GHSA-p8xq-m5g2-cvrc","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-27031"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel NFS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel NFS module can cause a deadlock during writeback interrupts, leading to a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nNFS: Fix nfs_netfs_issue_read() xarray locking for writeback interrupt\n\nThe loop inside nfs_netfs_issue_read() currently does not disable\ninterrupts while iterating through pages in the xarray to submit\nfor NFS read.  This is not safe though since after taking xa_lock,\nanother page in the mapping could be processed for writeback inside\nan interrupt, and deadlock can occur.  The fix is simple and clean\nif we use xa_for_each_range(), which handles the iteration with RCU\nwhile reducing code complexity.\n\nThe problem is easily reproduced with the following test:\n mount
