To make things simpler, just\ncall debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic\nat once.","modified":"2026-04-02T09:44:09.988179Z","published":"2025-09-18T13:58:53.286Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2026:0474-1","SUSE-SU-2026:0496-1","SUSE-SU-2026:0617-1","SUSE-SU-2026:1131-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/53xxx/CVE-2023-53417.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/04fdfec7b0286972cb5457ef958c92585447a39f"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/54166af8941d0cf46b65cfa2fbce76e38d82fadf"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bb4d5eefb67095d7c3b70b08498b23b7f2895f76"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e1523c4dbc54e164638ff8729d511cf91e27be04"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/53xxx/CVE-2023-53417.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-53417"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"82d4afcfa9b507c983bb261ad1d6d13cb52d6e06"},{"fixed":"bb4d5eefb67095d7c3b70b08498b23b7f2895f76"},{"fixed":"54166af8941d0cf46b65cfa2fbce76e38d82fadf"},{"fixed":"04fdfec7b0286972cb5457ef958c92585447a39f"},{"fixed":"e1523c4dbc54e164638ff8729d511cf91e27be04"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-53417.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
