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-2024-58078 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-2024-58078/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-58078/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-58078","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-58078/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-58078","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-58078","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-58078","GHSA-q3gj-8hcr-xvrx","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2024-58078","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-58078"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A mismatch in ID allocation and freeing in the Linux kernel misc device subsystem can trigger a warning and potential 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":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmisc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors\n\nmisc_minor_alloc was allocating id using ida for minor only in case of\nMISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR but misc_minor_free was always freeing ids\nusing ida_free causing a mismatch and following warn:\n\u003e \u003e WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 159 at lib/idr.c:525 ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f\n\u003e \u003e ida_free called for id=127 which is not allocated.\n\u003e \u003e \u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\u003c\n...\n\u003e \u003e [\u003c60941eb4\u003e] ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f\n\u003e \u003e [\u003c605ac993\u003e] misc_minor_free+0x3e/0xbc\n\u003e \u003e [\u003c605acb82\u003e] misc_deregister+0x171/0x1b3\n\nmisc_minor_alloc is changed to allocate id from ida for all minors\nfalling in the range of dynamic/ misc dynamic minors","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":"misc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors","id":"CVE-2024-58078","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"media: uvcvideo: Fix crash during unbind if gpio unit is in use","id":"CVE-2024-58079"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ASoC: soc-pcm: don't use soc_pcm_ret() on .prepare callback","id":"CVE-2024-58077"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-03-06","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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A mismatch in ID allocation and freeing in the Linux kernel misc device subsystem can trigger a warning and potential denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-58078/"}
