CVE-2022-48667
Description
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block version 3 (SMB3 ) protocol, specifically related to the insert range operation. This issue occurs when cached regions affected by the insert range operation are not properly discarded, which could lead to temporary file data corruption.
Statement
The problem was resolved by making sure that the affected cached regions are handled correctly to prevent data corruption. Additionally, some minor code cleanup was included to improve efficiency, such as reducing unnecessary inode size rereads.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
