Threats tagged 'ghsa-whhw-82c4-82xv'

A vulnerability in BusyBox's volume identification component causes improper validation of cluster parameters in specially crafted FAT filesystems. This flaw can trigger a divide-by-zero error during partition scanning, leading to a crash of probing utilities. The resulting denial of service can disrupt device discovery and system boot processes. The issue requires local access or the ability to present crafted storage media. In typical Red Hat Enterprise Linux environments, exposure is limited as BusyBox is not the default for storage probing. No effective mitigation or patch is currently available.
