5.5 mediumEPSS 1.9%

Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 1.9% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The ext4_valid_block_bitmap function in fs/ext4/balloc.c in the Linux kernel through 4.15.15 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and system crash) via a crafted ext4 image because balloc.c and ialloc.c do not validate bitmap block numbers.
