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-2024-46672 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-2024-46672/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-46672/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-46672","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-46672/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-46672","record":{"aliases":["AZL-49257","BELL-CVE-2024-46672","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-46672","GHSA-56j2-rfmx-x6p8","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-46672"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel Wi-Fi driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the brcmfmac Wi-Fi driver allows attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted SSID-based PMKSA deletion commands.","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\nwifi: brcmfmac: cfg80211: Handle SSID based pmksa deletion\n\nwpa_supplicant 2.11 sends since 1efdba5fdc2c (\"Handle PMKSA flush in the\ndriver for SAE/OWE offload cases\") SSID based PMKSA del commands.\nbrcmfmac is not prepared and tries to dereference the NULL bssid and\npmkid pointers in cfg80211_pmksa.
