CVE-2022-50746
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: validate the extent length for uncompressed pclusters
syzkaller reported a KASAN use-after-free: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=2ae90e873e97f1faf6f2
The referenced fuzzed image actually has two issues: - m_pa == 0 as a non-inlined pcluster; - The logical length is longer than its physical length.
The first issue has already been addressed. This patch addresses the second issue by checking the extent length validity.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8.4
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.21%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 11
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact75 %
AV:L sin UI:N indica escalada local. El use-after-free en kernel permite DoS (crash) o potencial ejecución de código con privilegios elevados.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
