| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.52
Description
The issue concerns the Linux kernel, where a vulnerability has been resolved related to the udf filesystem. The problem arises when mounting filesystems where the partition would overflow the 32-bits used for block number, or when the partition length is so large that it cannot safely index bits in a block bitmap.
Recommendations
Update to Linux kernel version 6.6.52 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the mounting of filesystems with excessively large partition lengths until a patch is available.
Restrict access to the udf filesystem to minimize the risk of exploitation.
