CVE-2026-90203 | BDVDB-2026-375982 Detail
LinuxLinux
Description#
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Squashfs: check block offset is not negative If a negative offset is read off disk (for example the offset into the decompressed fragment block), this will cause squashfs_copy_data() to perform an out of bounds access. Fix by checking if offset is negative, and returning 0. This matches existing behaviour where an offset beyond the block returns 0 bytes copied. To trigger this out of bounds access requires a crafted Squashfs filesystem and CAP_SYS_ADMIN to mount it. Unprivileged users will not be able to mount such a filesystem, but once mounted, an unprivileged user can trigger the out of bounds access by reading the crafted file with the negative offset.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact high, integrity impact none, availability impact high. Attack vector: local.
Weaknesses#
No weakness recorded in the source data.
