Description

A flaw was found in the ocfs2 filesystem module of the Linux kernel. This vulnerability occurs when the system attempts to read an inode from a corrupted filesystem, where the inline data size is not properly validated. This can lead to a use-after-free condition, potentially allowing a local attacker to cause a system crash (Denial of Service) or, in some cases, execute arbitrary code.
