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-2024-41098 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-2024-41098/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-41098/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-41098","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-41098/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-41098","record":{"aliases":["AZL-47537","AZL-47562","BELL-CVE-2024-41098","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-41098","GHSA-cm3g-9rxc-2598","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-41098"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's libata driver can cause a system crash when port allocation fails.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"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-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nata: libata-core: Fix null pointer dereference on error\n\nIf the ata_port_alloc() call in ata_host_alloc() fails,\nata_host_release() will get called.\n\nHowever, the code in ata_host_release() tries to free ata_port struct\nmembers unconditionally, which can lead to the following:\n\nBUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000003990\nPGD 0 P4D 0\nOops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI\nCPU: 10 PID: 594 Comm: (udev-worker) Not tainted 6.10.0-rc5 #44\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-2.fc40 04/01/2014\nRIP: 0010:ata_host_release.cold+0x2f/0x6e [libata]\nCode: e4 4d 63 f4 44 89 e2 48 c7 c6 90 ad 32 c0 48 c7 c7 d0 70 33 c0 49 83 c6 0e 41\nRSP: 0018:ffffc90000ebb968 EFLAGS: 00010246\nRAX: 0000000000000041 RBX: ffff88810fb52e78 RCX: 0000000000000000\nRDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff88813b3218c0 RDI: ffff88813b3218c0\nRBP: ffff88810fb52e40 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 6c65725f74736f68\nR10: ffffc90000ebb738 R11: 73692033203a746e R12: 0000000000000004\nR13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000011 R15: 0000000000000006\nFS:  00007f6cc55b9980(0000) GS:ffff88813b300000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000\nCS:  0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033\nCR2: 0000000000003990 CR3: 00000001122a2000 CR4: 0000000000750ef0\nPKRU: 55555554\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n ?
