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-2024-53211 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-2024-53211/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-53211/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-53211","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-53211/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-53211","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-53211","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-53211","GHSA-f4g2-c45m-rq74","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-53211"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel L2TP","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A logic error in the Linux kernel L2TP module can trigger a warning and potential instability during network namespace exit, leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"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":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/l2tp: fix warning in l2tp_exit_net found by syzbot\n\nIn l2tp's net exit handler, we check that an IDR is empty before\ndestroying it:\n\n\tWARN_ON_ONCE(!idr_is_empty(\u0026pn-\u003el2tp_tunnel_idr));\n\tidr_destroy(\u0026pn-\u003el2tp_tunnel_idr);\n\nBy forcing memory allocation failures in idr_alloc_32, syzbot is able\nto provoke a condition where idr_is_empty returns false despite there\nbeing no items in the IDR.
