Posted: Mon Mar 24, 2025 7:02 am
A recently discovered vulnerability in the Linux kernel, identified as CVE-2025-0927, poses a significant threat to system security.
This flaw, present in the HFS+ file system driver, allows attackers to exploit an out-of-bounds write condition, potentially leading to local privilege escalation.
The vulnerability can be triggered by manipulating a specially crafted HFS+ filesystem, which, under certain conditions, can overwrite sensitive data in kernel space.
