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-2025-23150 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian Linux. 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-2025-23150/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23150/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-23150","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-23150/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-23150","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-23150","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-23150","GHSA-jf2p-fggv-v92v","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-23150","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-23150","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-23150","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-23150"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel ext4","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel ext4 filesystem allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges via crafted symlink operations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"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-193","name":"Off-by-one Error"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\next4: fix off-by-one error in do_split\n\nSyzkaller detected a use-after-free issue in ext4_insert_dentry that was\ncaused by out-of-bounds access due to incorrect splitting in do_split.\n\nBUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ext4_insert_dentry+0x36a/0x6d0 fs/ext4/namei.c:2109\nWrite of size 251 at addr ffff888074572f14 by task syz-executor335/5847\n\nCPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 5847 Comm: syz-executor335 Not tainted 6.12.0-rc6-syzkaller-00318-ga9cda7c0ffed #0\nHardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 10/30/2024\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:94 [inline]\n dump_stack_lvl+0x241/0x360 lib/dump_stack.c:120\n print_address_description mm/kasan/report.c:377 [inline]\n print_report+0x169/0x550 mm/kasan/report.c:488\n kasan_report+0x143/0x180 mm/kasan/report.c:601\n kasan_check_range+0x282/0x290 mm/kasan/generic.c:189\n __asan_memcpy+0x40/0x70 mm/kasan/shadow.c:106\n ext4_insert_dentry+0x36a/0x6d0 fs/ext4/namei.c:2109\n add_dirent_to_buf+0x3d9/0x750 fs/ext4/namei.c:2154\n make_indexed_dir+0xf98/0x1600 fs/ext4/namei.c:2351\n ext4_add_entry+0x222a/0x25d0 fs/ext4/namei.c:2455\n ext4_add_nondir+0x8d/0x290 fs/ext4/namei.c:2796\n ext4_symlink+0x920/0xb50 fs/ext4/namei.c:3431\n vfs_symlink+0x137/0x2e0 fs/namei.c:4615\n do_symlinkat+0x222/0x3a0 fs/namei.c:4641\n __do_sys_symlink fs/namei.c:4662 [inline]\n __se_sys_symlink fs/namei.c:4660 [inline]\n __x64_sys_symlink+0x7a/0x90 fs/namei.c:4660\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:52 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0xf3/0x230 arch/x86/entry/common.c:83\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\nThe following loop is located right above 'if' statement.\n\nfor (i = count-1; i \u003e= 0; i--) {\n\t/* is more than half of this entry in 2nd half of the block?
