CriticalMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
openSUSE Tumbleweed versions prior to kernel-devel-7.0.11-1.1
Description
An issue exists in the EROFS (Enhanced Read-Only File System) implementation where out-of-bounds handling occurs for trailing directory entries. While boundary checks for
nameoff are present, trailing entries are processed using strnlen() with unchecked nameoff values. A specially crafted EROFS image containing a trailing directory entry with a nameoff greater than or equal to maxsize can cause an underflow in the calculation of maxsize - nameoff, leading strnlen() to read beyond the directory block. Additionally, nameoff0 must be verified as a multiple of sizeof(struct erofs dirent).Recommendations
Update to a version of the Linux kernel where the EROFS out-of-bounds nameoff handling is resolved.
Update openSUSE Tumbleweed to kernel-devel-7.0.11-1.1.
