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-2026-23306 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-2026-23306/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23306/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-23306","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-23306/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-23306","record":{"aliases":["AZL-80604","BELL-CVE-2026-23306","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-23306","GHSA-m6g2-mpp7-vr6r","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-23306","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-23306","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2026-23306","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-23306"],"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 use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's pm8001 SCSI driver allows local attackers to potentially execute code or escalate privileges via a double free scenario.","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":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":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: pm8001: Fix use-after-free in pm8001_queue_command()\n\nCommit e29c47fe8946 (\"scsi: pm8001: Simplify pm8001_task_exec()\") refactors\npm8001_queue_command(), however it introduces a potential cause of a double\nfree scenario when it changes the function to return -ENODEV in case of phy\ndown/device gone state.\n\nIn this path, pm8001_queue_command() updates task status and calls\ntask_done to indicate to upper layer that the task has been handled.\nHowever, this also frees the underlying SAS task.
