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-2024-36904 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-2024-36904/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-36904/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-36904","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-36904/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-36904","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-36904","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-36904","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-36904"],"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 TCP","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel TCP stack allows a use-after-free, potentially enabling local attackers to execute code or escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"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":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ntcp: Use refcount_inc_not_zero() in tcp_twsk_unique().\n\nAnderson Nascimento reported a use-after-free splat in tcp_twsk_unique()\nwith nice analysis.\n\nSince commit ec94c2696f0b (\"tcp/dccp: avoid one atomic operation for\ntimewait hashdance\"), inet_twsk_hashdance() sets TIME-WAIT socket's\nsk_refcnt after putting it into ehash and releasing the bucket lock.\n\nThus, there is a small race window where other threads could try to\nreuse the port during connect() and call sock_hold() in tcp_twsk_unique()\nfor the TIME-WAIT socket with zero refcnt.\n\nIf that happens, the refcnt taken by tcp_twsk_unique() is overwritten\nand sock_put() will cause underflow, triggering a real use-after-free\nsomewhere else.\n\nTo avoid the use-after-free, we need to use refcount_inc_not_zero() in\ntcp_twsk_unique() and give up on reusing the port if it returns false.\n\n[0]:\nrefcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.\nWARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1039313 at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0xe5/0x110\nCPU: 0 PID: 1039313 Comm: trigger Not tainted 6.8.6-200.fc39.x86_64 #1\nHardware name: VMware, Inc.
