Last modified

CVE-2024-50211 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 3.3/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udf: refactor inode_bmap() to handle error Refactor inode_bmap() to handle error since udf_next_aext() can return error now. On situations like ftruncate, udf_extend_file() can now detect errors and bail out early without resorting to checking for particular offsets and assuming internal behavior of these functions.. EPSS estimates a 0.20% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
