CVSS v2.0

7.5

High

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description The issue is related to the alauda init media() function in the Linux kernel, which can cause divide errors in alauda read data() and alauda write lba() if it fails. This is due to the uzonesize member of struct alauda info remaining 0. The vulnerability can potentially lead to a denial of service. To resolve the issue, a member media initialized has been added to struct alauda info, a condition in alauda check media() has been changed, and an error check for the return value of alauda init media() has been added.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
