An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-38411 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-2025-38411/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38411/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38411","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38411/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38411","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c3c4-j5v2-q687","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38411"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A double put of a request in the Linux kernel netfs subsystem can lead to use-after-free, potentially causing denial of service or code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-415","name":"Double Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnetfs: Fix double put of request\n\nIf a netfs request finishes during the pause loop, it will have the ref\nthat belongs to the IN_PROGRESS flag removed at that point - however, if it\nthen goes to the final wait loop, that will *also* put the ref because it\nsees that the IN_PROGRESS flag is clear and incorrectly assumes that this\nhappened when it called the collector.\n\nIn fact, since IN_PROGRESS is clear, we shouldn't call the collector again\nsince it's done all the cleanup, such as calling -\u003eki_complete().\n\nFix this by making netfs_collect_in_app() just return, indicating that\nwe're done if IN_PROGRESS is removed.","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":"netfs: Fix double put of request","id":"CVE-2025-38411","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"platform/x86: dell-wmi-sysman: Fix WMI data block retrieval in sysfs callbacks","id":"CVE-2025-38412"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"drm/msm: Fix a fence leak in submit error path","id":"CVE-2025-38410"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-07-25","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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-05","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A double put of a request in the Linux kernel netfs subsystem can lead to use-after-free, potentially causing denial of service or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38411/"}
