In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: validate free block extents against the partition length
udf free blocks() checks the logical block number and count against the partition length, but drops the extent offset from that final bound. A crafted extent can pass the guard while logicalBlockNum + offset + count points past the partition, which later indexes past the space bitmap array.
A single ftruncate(2) on a file backed by such an extent reliably panics the kernel. This is a local availability issue. On desktop systems where UDisks/polkit allows the active user to mount removable UDF media without CAP SYS ADMIN, an unprivileged local user can supply the crafted filesystem and trigger the panic by truncating a writable file on it. Systems that require root or CAP SYS ADMIN to mount the image have a higher prerequisite.
No confidentiality or integrity impact is claimed: the reproduced primitive is an out-of-bounds read of a bitmap pointer slot followed by a kernel panic.
Use the already computed logicalBlockNum + offset + count value for the partition length check. Also make load block bitmap() reject an out-of-range block group before indexing s block bitmap[], so corrupted callers cannot walk past the flexible array.
