MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 2.91%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.91%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Linux kernel is vulnerable to a stack-out-of-bounds write in the ext4 filesystem code when mounting and writing to a crafted ext4 image in ext4_update_inline_data(). An attacker could use this to cause a system crash and a denial of service.
