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-2024-57976 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-2024-57976/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57976/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-57976","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57976/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-57976","record":{"aliases":["AZL-62627","AZL-68754","BELL-CVE-2024-57976","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-57976","GHSA-7g3v-g92m-87wq","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2024-57976","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2024-57976","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2024-57976","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2024-57976","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-57976"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel btrfs","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A missing folio cleanup in the Linux kernel btrfs filesystem causes a kernel crash when cow_file_range fails, leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"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-459","name":"Incomplete Cleanup"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbtrfs: do proper folio cleanup when cow_file_range() failed\n\n[BUG]\nWhen testing with COW fixup marked as BUG_ON() (this is involved with the\nnew pin_user_pages*() change, which should not result new out-of-band\ndirty pages), I hit a crash triggered by the BUG_ON() from hitting COW\nfixup path.\n\nThis BUG_ON() happens just after a failed btrfs_run_delalloc_range():\n\n  BTRFS error (device dm-2): failed to run delalloc range, root 348 ino 405 folio 65536 submit_bitmap 6-15 start 90112 len 106496: -28\n  ------------[ cut here ]------------\n  kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/extent_io.c:1444!\n  Internal error: Oops -
