❓ What is the problem
**A vulnerability** (unclassified) exists in linux-aws.
📍 Affected scope
linux-aws — .
🔥 Severity
Severity: ?. Confidential information can be exposed externally
🔧 How to fix
Update to **4.4.0-1117.123**.
🛡️ Workaround
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.
🔍 Detection
Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run `grep -r 'linux-aws' .` against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response Actions (7 steps)

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'linux-aws' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で `linux-aws` を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 6
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade linux-aws to 4.4.0-1117.123

    ステージング環境で 4.4.0-1117.123 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスと、Step 3 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。

  3. 7
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 3 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
