CVE-2025-68323 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2025-68323: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: fix use-after-free caused by uec->work The delayed work uec->work is scheduled in gaokun_ucsi_probe() but never properly canceled in gaokun_ucsi_remove(). This creates use-after-free scenarios where the ucsi and gaokun_ucsi structure are freed after ucsi_destroy() completes execution, while the gaokun_ucsi_register_worker() might be either currently executing or still pending in the work queue. The already-freed gaokun_ucsi or ucsi structure may then be accessed. Furthermore, the race window is 3 seconds, which is sufficiently long to make this bug easily reproducible. The following is the trace captured by KASAN: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __run_timers+0x5ec/0x630 Write of size 8 at addr ffff00000ec28cc8 by task swapper/0/0 ...

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2025-68323

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2025-68323 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2025-68323

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2025-68323.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2025-68323, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
