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-2024-35855 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-2024-35855/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-35855/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-35855","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-35855/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-35855","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-35855","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-35855","GHSA-7rp6-2m4j-7w56","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-35855"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the mlxsw driver allows a use-after-free, potentially leading to system crashes or arbitrary code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"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":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix possible use-after-free during activity update\n\nThe rule activity update delayed work periodically traverses the list of\nconfigured rules and queries their activity from the device.\n\nAs part of this task it accesses the entry pointed by 'ventry-\u003eentry',\nbut this entry can be changed concurrently by the rehash delayed work,\nleading to a use-after-free [1].\n\nFix by closing the race and perform the activity query under the\n'vregion-\u003elock' mutex.\n\n[1]\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mlxsw_sp_acl_tcam_flower_rule_activity_get+0x121/0x140\nRead of size 8 at addr ffff8881054ed808 by task kworker/0:18/181\n\nCPU: 0 PID: 181 Comm: kworker/0:18 Not tainted 6.9.0-rc2-custom-00781-gd5ab772d32f7 #2\nHardware name: Mellanox Technologies Ltd.
