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-2024-42286 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-2024-42286/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42286/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-42286","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42286/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-42286","record":{"aliases":["AZL-48972","BELL-CVE-2024-42286","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-42286","GHSA-f58v-43c6-f6hf","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-42286"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the qla2xxx SCSI driver causes a kernel crash when NVMe local port validation fails, leading to denial of service.","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":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":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: qla2xxx: validate nvme_local_port correctly\n\nThe driver load failed with error message,\n\nqla2xxx [0000:04:00.0]-ffff:0: register_localport failed: ret=ffffffef\n\nand with a kernel crash,\n\n\tBUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000070\n\tWorkqueue: events_unbound qla_register_fcport_fn [qla2xxx]\n\tRIP: 0010:nvme_fc_register_remoteport+0x16/0x430 [nvme_fc]\n\tRSP: 0018:ffffaaa040eb3d98 EFLAGS: 00010282\n\tRAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff9dfb46b78c00 RCX: 0000000000000000\n\tRDX: ffff9dfb46b78da8 RSI: ffffaaa040eb3e08 RDI: 0000000000000000\n\tRBP: ffff9dfb612a0a58 R08: ffffffffaf1d6270 R09: 3a34303a30303030\n\tR10: 34303a303030305b R11: 2078787832616c71 R12: ffff9dfb46b78dd4\n\tR13: ffff9dfb46b78c24 R14: ffff9dfb41525300 R15: ffff9dfb46b78da8\n\tFS:  0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff9dfc67c00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000\n\tCS:  0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033\n\tCR2: 0000000000000070 CR3: 000000018da10004 CR4: 00000000000206f0\n\tCall Trace:\n\tqla_nvme_register_remote+0xeb/0x1f0 [qla2xxx]\n\t?
