Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux Kernel versions prior to v4.14.283

Description The issue is related to a use-after-free error that occurs when volume creation fails in the ubi create volume function. This problem was introduced in version v4.12 and is fixed in version v4.14.283. The actual impact and attack plausibility have not yet been proven.

Recommendations For Linux Kernel versions prior to v4.14.283, update to version v4.14.283 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the ubi create volume function until a patch is available.
