## What is CVE-2024-58056?

CVE-2024-58056 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 6 Mar 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

remoteproc: core: Fix ida_free call while not allocated

In the rproc_alloc() function, on error, put_device(&rproc->dev) is
called, leading to the call of the rproc_type_release() function.
An error can occurs before ida_alloc is called.

In such case in rproc_type_release(), the condition (rproc->index >= 0) is
true as rproc->index has been  initialized to 0.
ida_free() is called reporting a warning:

Calling ida_alloc earlier in rproc_alloc ensures that the rproc->index is
properly set.

## Fix prompt for AI coding agents

```text
Check this codebase for CVE-2024-58056 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2024-58056 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 6 Mar 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-58056 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
