An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-40992 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-2024-40992/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40992/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-40992","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40992/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-40992","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-40992","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-40992","GHSA-pq93-v2j7-gw4w","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-40992"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel RDMA","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A flaw in the Linux kernel RDMA subsystem allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending malformed UD request packets that trigger an error state.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nRDMA/rxe: Fix responder length checking for UD request packets\n\nAccording to the IBA specification:\nIf a UD request packet is detected with an invalid length, the request\nshall be an invalid request and it shall be silently dropped by\nthe responder.
