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-2025-38514 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-2025-38514/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38514/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38514","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38514/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38514","record":{"aliases":["AZL-66386","AZL-75087","BELL-CVE-2025-38514","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-38514","GHSA-vc22-mx78-4mgj","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2025-38514","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-38514","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2025-38514","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-38514","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38514"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's rxrpc module allows local attackers to cause a system crash by triggering an oops.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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\nrxrpc: Fix oops due to non-existence of prealloc backlog struct\n\nIf an AF_RXRPC service socket is opened and bound, but calls are\npreallocated, then rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call() will oops because the\nrxrpc_backlog struct doesn't get allocated until the first preallocation is\nmade.\n\nFix this by returning NULL from rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call() if there is no\nbacklog struct.
