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-2026-72024 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-2026-72024/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72024/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-72024","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72024/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-72024","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-72024","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-72024","GHSA-25w8-qg97-7fjr","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-72024"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel mac802154 subsystem allows a use-after-free during interface teardown, potentially causing a system crash.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"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-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmac802154: remove interfaces with RCU list deletion\n\nQueue wake, stop, and disable paths walk local-\u003einterfaces under RCU.\nThe bulk hardware teardown path removes entries with list_del(), so an\nasynchronous transmit completion can follow a poisoned list node in\nieee802154_wake_queue().\n\nUse list_del_rcu() as in the single-interface removal path.
