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-2025-68753 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: 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-2025-68753/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68753/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-68753","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68753/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-68753","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-68753","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-68753","GHSA-fg49-cm53-vpfx","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-68753","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-68753","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-68753"],"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 driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A missing bounds check in the ALSA firewire-motu driver allows buffer overflows, potentially enabling local attackers to execute code or escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nALSA: firewire-motu: add bounds check in put_user loop for DSP events\n\nIn the DSP event handling code, a put_user() loop copies event data.\nWhen the user buffer size is not aligned to 4 bytes, it could overwrite\nbeyond the buffer boundary.\n\nFix by adding a bounds check before put_user().","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":"ALSA: firewire-motu: add bounds check in put_user loop for DSP events","id":"CVE-2025-68753","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"rtc: amlogic-a4: fix double free caused by devm","id":"CVE-2025-68754"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"iavf: Implement settime64 with -EOPNOTSUPP","id":"CVE-2025-68752"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-01-05","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A missing bounds check in the ALSA firewire-motu driver allows buffer overflows, potentially enabling local attackers to execute code or escalate privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-68753/"}
