Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The Linux kernel contains an issue within the hfs/hfsplus component. A previous fix introduced a warning (
WARN ON()) triggered by a corrupted HFS image, as reported by syzbot. The issue is addressed by handling the situation as an error and returning -EIO, rather than issuing a warning. Additionally, a memory leak introduced by a prior fix for a similar warning has been resolved, and a previously unhandled case has been addressed.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
