How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 gfs2-kmp-default to version 5.14.21-150500.55.62.2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gfs2-kmp-default package and not the gfs2-kmp-default package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

afs: Increase buffer size in afs_update_volume_status()

The max length of volume->vid value is 20 characters. So increase idbuf[] size up to 24 to avoid overflow.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

[DH: Actually, it's 20 + NUL, so increase it to 24 and use snprintf()]
