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-2024-56658 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-2024-56658/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-56658/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-56658","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-56658/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-56658","record":{"aliases":["AZL-54798","AZL-54871","BELL-CVE-2024-56658","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-56658","GHSA-23x6-w5q4-2mqw","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-56658"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free in the Linux kernel network namespace teardown allows attackers to cause a system crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.","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":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":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: defer final 'struct net' free in netns dismantle\n\nIlya reported a slab-use-after-free in dst_destroy [1]\n\nIssue is in xfrm6_net_init() and xfrm4_net_init() :\n\nThey copy xfrm[46]_dst_ops_template into net-\u003exfrm.xfrm[46]_dst_ops.\n\nBut net structure might be freed before all the dst callbacks are\ncalled.
