VectorAV:A/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 6.3.0-rc6-syzkaller-g09a9639e56c0
Description The Linux kernel contains a flaw related to the handling of erofs filesystem images. Specifically, the kernel does not properly validate the clusterofs value within the HEAD index of non-compact images. A crafted image with an invalid clusterofs value can trigger a page fault, leading to a kernel panic. This issue is triggered by Syzbot-generated images with a non-compact HEAD index and an invalid clusterofs value. Normal images or those using compact indexes are not affected. The vulnerable code is located within the z erofs decompress queue function.
Recommendations Update to Linux kernel version 6.3.0-rc6-syzkaller-g09a9639e56c0 or a later version to address this issue.
