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-2024-50014 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-2024-50014/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50014/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-50014","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50014/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-50014","record":{"aliases":["AZL-51750","AZL-51788","BELL-CVE-2024-50014","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-50014","GHSA-v7j7-2w3m-jfff","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2024-50014","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2024-50014","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-50014"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel ext4","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can cause a kernel crash by mounting an ext4 filesystem with fast-commit enabled, due to accessing an uninitialized lock during journal replay.","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-908","name":"Use of Uninitialized Resource"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\next4: fix access to uninitialised lock in fc replay path\n\nThe following kernel trace can be triggered with fstest generic/629 when\nexecuted against a filesystem with fast-commit feature enabled:\n\nINFO: trying to register non-static key.\nThe code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe\nyou didn't initialize this object before use?\nturning off the locking correctness validator.\nCPU: 0 PID: 866 Comm: mount Not tainted 6.10.0+ #11\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.2-3-gd478f380-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x66/0x90\n register_lock_class+0x759/0x7d0\n __lock_acquire+0x85/0x2630\n ? __find_get_block+0xb4/0x380\n lock_acquire+0xd1/0x2d0\n ? __ext4_journal_get_write_access+0xd5/0x160\n _raw_spin_lock+0x33/0x40\n ? __ext4_journal_get_write_access+0xd5/0x160\n __ext4_journal_get_write_access+0xd5/0x160\n ext4_reserve_inode_write+0x61/0xb0\n __ext4_mark_inode_dirty+0x79/0x270\n ? ext4_ext_replay_set_iblocks+0x2f8/0x450\n ext4_ext_replay_set_iblocks+0x330/0x450\n ext4_fc_replay+0x14c8/0x1540\n ? jread+0x88/0x2e0\n ? rcu_is_watching+0x11/0x40\n do_one_pass+0x447/0xd00\n jbd2_journal_recover+0x139/0x1b0\n jbd2_journal_load+0x96/0x390\n ext4_load_and_init_journal+0x253/0xd40\n ext4_fill_super+0x2cc6/0x3180\n...\n\nIn the replay path there's an attempt to lock sbi-\u003es_bdev_wb_lock in\nfunction ext4_check_bdev_write_error().
