Vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Exploitability: 1.8 / Impact: 5.9
Source: NVD
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
partitions: mac: fix handling of bogus partition table
Fix several issues in partition probing:
- The bailout for a bad partoffset must use put_dev_sector(), since the
preceding read_part_sector() succeeded.
- If the partition table claims a silly sector size like 0xfff bytes
(which results in partition table entries straddling sector boundaries),
bail out instead of accessing out-of-bounds memory.
- We must not assume that the partition table contains proper NUL
termination - use strnlen() and strncmp() instead of strlen() and
strcmp().
