The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to memory corruption within the udf_sb_free_bitmap() function in fs/udf/super.c, within the read_block_bitmap() and __load_block_bitmap() functions in fs/udf/balloc.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
