Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ocfs2 versions prior to v4.9.288

Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the strlen function, which can cause a mount failure in ocfs2. The actual impact and attack plausibility have not yet been proven.

Recommendations For versions prior to v4.9.288, update to Linux Kernel version v4.9.288 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the ocfs2 filesystem until a patch is applied.
