5.5

Medium

VectorAV: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 (affected versions not specified)
Description: The Linux kernel contains an issue where invalid file types within inodes were not properly checked during the reading process. This could lead to malfunctions or assertion failures within the virtual filesystem (VFS). A sanity check has been added to treat invalid file types as a filesystem error, preventing potential issues.
Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
