Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
luksmeta (affected versions not specified)
Description
A data corruption issue exists in the luksmeta utility when operating with the LUKS1 disk encryption format. An attacker possessing appropriate permissions can trigger this flaw by writing a substantial amount of metadata to an encrypted device. The utility does not properly validate available space, resulting in metadata overwriting and corrupting user data, leading to permanent data loss. Devices utilizing LUKS formats other than LUKS1 are not susceptible to this issue.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
