In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: udf: fix OOB read in lengthAllocDescs handling
When parsing Allocation Extent Descriptor, lengthAllocDescs comes from on-disk data and must be validated against the block size. Crafted or corrupted images may set lengthAllocDescs so that the total descriptor length (sizeof(allocExtDesc) + lengthAllocDescs) exceeds the buffer, leading udfupdatetag() to call crcitut() on out-of-bounds memory and trigger a KASAN use-after-free read.
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in crcitut+0x1d5/0x2b0 lib/crc-itu-t.c:60 Read of size 1 at addr ffff888041e7d000 by task syz-executor317/5309
