CVSS 3.1
5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2023-53165
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
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.
