CVE-2019-19319

Publication date 27 November 2019

Last updated 9 October 2024


Ubuntu priority

Cvss 3 Severity Score

6.5 · Medium

Score breakdown

In the Linux kernel before 5.2, a setxattr operation, after a mount of a crafted ext4 image, can cause a slab-out-of-bounds write access because of an ext4_xattr_set_entry use-after-free in fs/ext4/xattr.c when a large old_size value is used in a memset call, aka CID-345c0dbf3a30.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

It was discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle setxattr operations in some situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
