Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version. Check out the EPSS documentation for more details.

CVE-2024-58089 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade torvalds/linux to version 4.20, 6.12.17, 6.13.5 or higher.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure in the btrfs process. An attacker can cause kernel memory corruption, data exposure, and system crash by manipulating filesystem write operations to trigger a race condition during delayed allocation range handling. This can result in use-after-free scenarios, corruption of workqueues and data structures, and potential exposure of other users' data through duplicated extent accounting.
Note: The Linux kernel project assigns a CVE to every bug fix it ships, whether or not the bug has been shown to be exploitable. This advisory was generated from that process and has not been individually assessed for exploitability. See the kernel's CVE process documentation: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/process/cve.rst
