NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel package and not the kernel package as distributed by RHEL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

exfat: fix out-of-bounds access of directory entries

In the case of the directory size is greater than or equal to the cluster size, if start_clu becomes an EOF cluster(an invalid cluster) due to file system corruption, then the directory entry where ei->hint_femp.eidx hint is outside the directory, resulting in an out-of-bounds access, which may cause further file system corruption.

This commit adds a check for start_clu, if it is an invalid cluster, the file or directory will be treated as empty.
