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-2024-39494 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-2024-39494/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-39494/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-39494","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-39494/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-39494","record":{"aliases":["AZL-46994","BELL-CVE-2024-39494","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-39494","GHSA-2938-5hf8-58m3","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-39494"],"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 use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's IMA subsystem allows attackers to potentially execute code or escalate privileges via dentry name handling.","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\nima: Fix use-after-free on a dentry's dname.name\n\n-\u003ed_name.name can change on rename and the earlier value can be freed;\nthere are conditions sufficient to stabilize it (-\u003ed_lock on dentry,\n-\u003ed_lock on its parent, -\u003ei_rwsem exclusive on the parent's inode,\nrename_lock), but none of those are met at any of the sites.
