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-2024-54683 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-2024-54683/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-54683/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-54683","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-54683/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-54683","record":{"aliases":["AZL-55751","AZL-55771","BELL-CVE-2024-54683","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-54683","GHSA-4qcv-j3wr-hw24","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2024-54683","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2024-54683","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2024-54683","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-54683"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel netfilter","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel netfilter IDLETIMER module can cause an ABBA deadlock, leading to a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","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-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: IDLETIMER: Fix for possible ABBA deadlock\n\nDeletion of the last rule referencing a given idletimer may happen at\nthe same time as a read of its file in sysfs:\n\n| ======================================================\n| WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected\n| 6.12.0-rc7-01692-g5e9a28f41134-dirty #594 Not tainted\n| ------------------------------------------------------\n| iptables/3303 is trying to acquire lock:\n| ffff8881057e04b8 (kn-\u003eactive#48){++++}-{0:0}, at: __kernfs_remove+0x20\n|\n| but task is already holding lock:\n| ffffffffa0249068 (list_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: idletimer_tg_destroy_v]\n|\n| which lock already depends on the new lock.\n\nA simple reproducer is:\n\n| #!/bin/bash\n|\n| while true; do\n|         iptables -A INPUT -i foo -j IDLETIMER --timeout 10 --label \"testme\"\n|         iptables -D INPUT -i foo -j IDLETIMER --timeout 10 --label \"testme\"\n| done \u0026\n| while true; do\n|         cat /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/testme \u003e/dev/null\n| done\n\nAvoid this by freeing list_mutex right after deleting the element from\nthe list, then continuing with the teardown.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"netfilter: IDLETIMER: Fix for possible ABBA deadlock","id":"CVE-2024-54683","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-54687"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Zipbomb DoS via Missing Slack Import Validation","id":"CVE-2024-54682"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-01-11","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel netfilter IDLETIMER module can cause an ABBA deadlock, leading to a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-54683/"}
