NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt_debug-devel package and not the kernel-rt_debug-devel package as distributed by SLES.

A memory out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the Linux kernel before 5.9-rc2 with the ext3/ext4 file system, in the way it accesses a directory with broken indexing. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system if the directory exists. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
