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-2025-38699 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-2025-38699/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38699/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38699","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38699/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38699","record":{"aliases":["AZL-66848","AZL-73644","BELL-CVE-2025-38699","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-38699","GHSA-4wc7-fq9j-gx9p","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2025-38699","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-38699","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-38699","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-38699","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38699"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A double-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's bfa SCSI driver allows attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute code during driver initialization failure.","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":"nvd","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-415","name":"Double Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: bfa: Double-free fix\n\nWhen the bfad_im_probe() function fails during initialization, the memory\npointed to by bfad-\u003eim is freed without setting bfad-\u003eim to NULL.\n\nSubsequently, during driver uninstallation, when the state machine enters\nthe bfad_sm_stopping state and calls the bfad_im_probe_undo() function,\nit attempts to free the memory pointed to by bfad-\u003eim again, thereby\ntriggering a double-free vulnerability.\n\nSet bfad-\u003eim to NULL if probing fails.","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":"scsi: bfa: Double-free fix","id":"CVE-2025-38699","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"debian:debian_linux","products":["debian:debian_linux","linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"scsi: libiscsi: Initialize iscsi_conn-\u003edd_data only if memory is allocated","id":"CVE-2025-38700"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"jfs: Regular file corruption check","id":"CVE-2025-38698"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-09-04","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"ProFTPD Improper Access Control","id":"CVE-2015-3306","kev_date_added":"2026-10-08","published":"2015-05-18"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"RoundCube Webmail Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-49113","kev_date_added":"2026-02-20","published":"2025-06-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU InetUtils Argument Injection","id":"CVE-2026-24061","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2026-01-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions","id":"CVE-2025-39682","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-09-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Mozilla Firefox Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2024-9680","kev_date_added":"2024-10-15","published":"2024-10-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"RARLAB UnRAR Directory Traversal","id":"CVE-2022-30333","kev_date_added":"2022-08-09","published":"2022-05-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Roundcube Webmail SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-44026","kev_date_added":"2023-06-22","published":"2021-11-19"}],"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":"2026-05-12","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A double-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's bfa SCSI driver allows attackers to cause a denial of service or potentially execute code during driver initialization failure.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38699/"}
