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-2024-46771 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-2024-46771/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-46771/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-46771","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-46771/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-46771","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-46771","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-46771","GHSA-82f5-7m6p-jqwq","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-46771"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel CAN BCM","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can trigger a memory leak in the Linux kernel CAN BCM module by racing device unregistration with socket connection, causing a warning and potential resource exhaustion.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"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":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ncan: bcm: Remove proc entry when dev is unregistered.\n\nsyzkaller reported a warning in bcm_connect() below. [0]\n\nThe repro calls connect() to vxcan1, removes vxcan1, and calls\nconnect() with ifindex == 0.\n\nCalling connect() for a BCM socket allocates a proc entry.\nThen, bcm_sk(sk)-\u003ebound is set to 1 to prevent further connect().\n\nHowever, removing the bound device resets bcm_sk(sk)-\u003ebound to 0\nin bcm_notify().\n\nThe 2nd connect() tries to allocate a proc entry with the same\nname and sets NULL to bcm_sk(sk)-\u003ebcm_proc_read, leaking the\noriginal proc entry.\n\nSince the proc entry is available only for connect()ed sockets,\nlet's clean up the entry when the bound netdev is
