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-2025-22123 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-2025-22123/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-22123/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-22123","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-22123/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-22123","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-22123","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-22123","GHSA-fq4p-236v-8g34","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-22123"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel f2fs","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can trigger a kernel panic in the f2fs filesystem by accessing an uninitialized segment structure, causing a 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":[{"id":"CWE-908","name":"Use of Uninitialized Resource"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nf2fs: fix to avoid accessing uninitialized curseg\n\nsyzbot reports a f2fs bug as below:\n\nF2FS-fs (loop3): Stopped filesystem due to reason: 7\nkworker/u8:7: attempt to access beyond end of device\nBUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffed1604ea3dfa\nRIP: 0010:get_ckpt_valid_blocks fs/f2fs/segment.h:361 [inline]\nRIP: 0010:has_curseg_enough_space fs/f2fs/segment.h:570 [inline]\nRIP: 0010:__get_secs_required fs/f2fs/segment.h:620 [inline]\nRIP: 0010:has_not_enough_free_secs fs/f2fs/segment.h:633 [inline]\nRIP: 0010:has_enough_free_secs+0x575/0x1660 fs/f2fs/segment.h:649\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n f2fs_is_checkpoint_ready fs/f2fs/segment.h:671 [inline]\n f2fs_write_inode+0x425/0x540 fs/f2fs/inode.c:791\n write_inode fs/fs-writeback.c:1525 [inline]\n __writeback_single_inode+0x708/0x10d0 fs/fs-writeback.c:1745\n writeback_sb_inodes+0x820/0x1360 fs/fs-writeback.c:1976\n wb_writeback+0x413/0xb80 fs/fs-writeback.c:2156\n wb_do_writeback fs/fs-writeback.c:2303 [inline]\n wb_workfn+0x410/0x1080 fs/fs-writeback.c:2343\n process_one_work kernel/workqueue.c:3236 [inline]\n process_scheduled_works+0xa66/0x1840 kernel/workqueue.c:3317\n worker_thread+0x870/0xd30 kernel/workqueue.c:3398\n kthread+0x7a9/0x920 kernel/kthread.c:464\n ret_from_fork+0x4b/0x80 arch/x86/kernel/process.c:148\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:244\n\nCommit 8b10d3653735 (\"f2fs: introduce FAULT_NO_SEGMENT\") allows to trigger\nno free segment fault in allocator, then it will update curseg-\u003esegno to\nNULL_SEGNO, though, CP_ERROR_FLAG has been set, f2fs_write_inode() missed\nto check the flag, and access invalid curseg-\u003esegno directly in below call\npath, then resulting in panic:\n\n- f2fs_write_inode\n -
