Descriptions
The set_fat function in fat.c in dosfstools before 4.0 might allow attackers to corrupt a FAT12 filesystem or cause a denial of service (invalid memory read and crash) by writing an odd number of clusters to the third to last entry on a FAT12 filesystem, which triggers an "off-by-two error."
La función set_fat en fat.c en dosfstools en versiones anteriores a 4.0 podría permitir a atacantes corromper un sistema de archivos FAT12 o provocar una denegación de servicio (lectura de memoria no válida y caída) escribiendo un número impar de clusters desde la tercera a la última entrada en un sistema de archivos FAT12, lo que desencadena un "off-by-two error".
