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-2024-57802 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-2024-57802/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57802/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-57802","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57802/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-57802","record":{"aliases":["AZL-55828","AZL-55859","BELL-CVE-2024-57802","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-57802","GHSA-xm36-ph36-7r35","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-57802"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A local attacker can trigger an uninitialized value read in the Linux kernel's netrom module, potentially leaking sensitive memory contents.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":9.4,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/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\nnetrom: check buffer length before accessing it\n\nSyzkaller reports an uninit value read from ax25cmp when sending raw message\nthrough ieee802154 implementation.\n\n=====================================================\nBUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in ax25cmp+0x3a5/0x460 net/ax25/ax25_addr.c:119\n ax25cmp+0x3a5/0x460 net/ax25/ax25_addr.c:119\n nr_dev_get+0x20e/0x450 net/netrom/nr_route.c:601\n nr_route_frame+0x1a2/0xfc0 net/netrom/nr_route.c:774\n nr_xmit+0x5a/0x1c0 net/netrom/nr_dev.c:144\n __netdev_start_xmit include/linux/netdevice.h:4940 [inline]\n netdev_start_xmit include/linux/netdevice.h:4954 [inline]\n xmit_one net/core/dev.c:3548 [inline]\n dev_hard_start_xmit+0x247/0xa10 net/core/dev.c:3564\n __dev_queue_xmit+0x33b8/0x5130 net/core/dev.c:4349\n dev_queue_xmit include/linux/netdevice.h:3134 [inline]\n raw_sendmsg+0x654/0xc10 net/ieee802154/socket.c:299\n ieee802154_sock_sendmsg+0x91/0xc0 net/ieee802154/socket.c:96\n sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:730 [inline]\n __sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:745 [inline]\n ____sys_sendmsg+0x9c2/0xd60 net/socket.c:2584\n ___sys_sendmsg+0x28d/0x3c0 net/socket.c:2638\n __sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2667 [inline]\n __do_sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2676 [inline]\n __se_sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2674 [inline]\n __x64_sys_sendmsg+0x307/0x490 net/socket.c:2674\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:52 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0x44/0x110 arch/x86/entry/common.c:83\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0x6b\n\nUninit was created at:\n slab_post_alloc_hook+0x129/0xa70 mm/slab.h:768\n slab_alloc_node mm/slub.c:3478 [inline]\n kmem_cache_alloc_node+0x5e9/0xb10 mm/slub.c:3523\n kmalloc_reserve+0x13d/0x4a0 net/core/skbuff.c:560\n __alloc_skb+0x318/0x740 net/core/skbuff.c:651\n alloc_skb include/linux/skbuff.h:1286 [inline]\n alloc_skb_with_frags+0xc8/0xbd0 net/core/skbuff.c:6334\n sock_alloc_send_pskb+0xa80/0xbf0 net/core/sock.c:2780\n sock_alloc_send_skb include/net/sock.h:1884 [inline]\n raw_sendmsg+0x36d/0xc10 net/ieee802154/socket.c:282\n ieee802154_sock_sendmsg+0x91/0xc0 net/ieee802154/socket.c:96\n sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:730 [inline]\n __sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:745 [inline]\n ____sys_sendmsg+0x9c2/0xd60 net/socket.c:2584\n ___sys_sendmsg+0x28d/0x3c0 net/socket.c:2638\n __sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2667 [inline]\n __do_sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2676 [inline]\n __se_sys_sendmsg net/socket.c:2674 [inline]\n __x64_sys_sendmsg+0x307/0x490 net/socket.c:2674\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:52 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0x44/0x110 arch/x86/entry/common.c:83\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0x6b\n\nCPU: 0 PID: 5037 Comm: syz-executor166 Not tainted 6.7.0-rc7-syzkaller-00003-gfbafc3e621c3 #0\nHardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 11/17/2023\n=====================================================\n\nThis issue occurs because the skb buffer is too small, and it's actual\nallocation is aligned.
