Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会开源的一个操作系统内核。 Linux kernel 6.18版本存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于dm-pcache的cache_pos_decode()从缓存设备获取持久化的key_tail和dirty_tail seg_off并用于段内寻址，未拒绝不低于段data_size的解码seg_off，可被提供设备的攻击者（CAP_SYS_ADMIN）控制，导致读取段数据之外的内存，形成越界读取。

Vulnerability Title
dm-pcache: bound the persisted tail-position offset
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm-pcache: bound the persisted tail-position offset cache_pos_decode() takes the persisted key_tail and dirty_tail seg_off from the cache device and addresses within the segment with it. A seg_off at or past the segment data_size, controllable by whoever supplies the device (CAP_SYS_ADMIN), reads past the segment data. Reject a decoded seg_off that is not below the segment data_size.
