If it's unsupported, it tries to\nput the data table using symbol_put(). If an unsupported version is\nrequested, symbol_put() fails like this:\n\n kernel BUG at kernel/module/main.c:786!\n RIP: 0010:__symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n Call Trace:\n  <TASK>\n  ? __die_body.cold+0x19/0x27\n  ? die+0x2e/0x50\n  ? do_trap+0xca/0x110\n  ? do_error_trap+0x65/0x80\n  ? __symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n  ? exc_invalid_op+0x51/0x70\n  ? __symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n  ? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x1a/0x20\n  ? __pfx_cmp_name+0x10/0x10\n  ? __symbol_put+0x93/0xb0\n  ? __symbol_put+0x62/0xb0\n  utf8_load+0xf8/0x150\n\nThat happens because symbol_put() expects the unique string that\nidentify the symbol, instead of a pointer to the loaded symbol. Fix that\nby using such string.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-476"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/156bb2c569cd869583c593d27a5bd69e7b2a4264","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4387cef540f36c2c9297460758cc2438305a24a0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6504dd27123966dc455494cb55217c04ca479121","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/89933f8ab3b4cad5ac14ea56a39947d1ffe7d0e3","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c4b6c1781f6cc4e2283120ac8d873864b8056f21"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:57:56.913276502+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-53233","score":0.00224,"percentile":0.1307,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
