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-2024-50043 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-2024-50043/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50043/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-50043","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50043/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-50043","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-50043","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-50043","GHSA-5q55-gh5r-h286","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-50043"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel NFS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel's NFS server allows attackers to trigger use-after-free or refcount underflow errors, potentially leading to code execution or system crashes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnfsd: fix possible badness in FREE_STATEID\n\nWhen multiple FREE_STATEIDs are sent for the same delegation stateid,\nit can lead to a possible either use-after-free or counter refcount\nunderflow errors.\n\nIn nfsd4_free_stateid() under the client lock we find a delegation\nstateid, however the code drops the lock before calling nfs4_put_stid(),\nthat allows another FREE_STATE to find the stateid again.
