CVE-2023-53616
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: fix invalid free of JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap in diUnmount
syzbot found an invalid-free in diUnmount:
JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap is not setting to NULL after free in diUnmount. If jfs_remount() free JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap but then failed at diMount(). JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap will be freed once again. Fix this problem by setting JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap to NULL after free.

- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.15%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 4
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation65 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution45 %
Vulnerabilidad de use-after-free (CWE-415) en código kernel JFS que requiere acceso local (AV:L, PR:L) sin interacción. La pista sugiere T1068 (escalada local) e impacto de ejecución. Confianza moderada: el bug es double-free en unmount, no hay evidencia de RCE completa documentada.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
