CVE-2024-53681
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvmet: Don't overflow subsysnqn nvmet_root_discovery_nqn_store treats the subsysnqn string like a fixed size buffer, even though it is dynamically allocated to the size of the string.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
