Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: udf: Fix uninitialized array access for some pathnames For filenames that begin with . and are between 2 and 5 characters long, UDF charset conversion code would read uninitialized memory in the output buffer. The only practical impact is that the name may be prepended a "unification hash" when it is not actually needed but still it is good to fix this.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 4.6 < 4.14.324) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.15 < 4.19.293) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.20 < 5.4.255) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.192) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.123) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.42) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.4.7)
