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-2025-38162 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-2025-38162/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38162/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38162","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38162/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38162","record":{"aliases":["AZL-64583","AZL-70645","BELL-CVE-2025-38162","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-38162","GHSA-r97f-5wrg-fmv7","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2025-38162","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-38162","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-38162","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-38162","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38162"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel netfilter","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An integer overflow in the Linux kernel's netfilter pipapo lookup table allocation can lead to memory corruption or denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"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":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfilter: nft_set_pipapo: prevent overflow in lookup table allocation\n\nWhen calculating the lookup table size, ensure the following\nmultiplication does not overflow:\n\n- desc-\u003efield_len[] maximum value is U8_MAX multiplied by\n  NFT_PIPAPO_GROUPS_PER_BYTE(f) that can be 2, worst case.\n- NFT_PIPAPO_BUCKETS(f-\u003ebb) is 2^8, worst case.\n- sizeof(unsigned long), from sizeof(*f-\u003elt), lt in\n  struct nft_pipapo_field.\n\nThen, use check_mul_overflow() to multiply by bucket size and then use\ncheck_add_overflow() to the alignment for avx2 (if needed).
