CVE-2025-55095
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
The function _ux_host_class_storage_media_mount() is responsible for mounting partitions on a USB mass storage device. When it encounters an extended partition entry in the partition table, it recursively calls itself to mount the next logical partition. This recursion occurs in _ux_host_class_storage_partition_read(), which parses up to four partition entries. If an extended partition is found (with type UX_HOST_CLASS_STORAGE_PARTITION_EXTENDED or EXTENDED_LBA_MAPPED), the code invokes: _ux_host_class_storage_media_mount(storage, sector + _ux_utility_long_get(...)); There is no limit on the recursion depth or tracking of visited sectors. As a result, a malicious or malformed disk image can include cyclic or excessively deep chains of extended partitions, causing the function to recurse until stack overflow occurs.

"value": "La función _ux_host_class_storage_media_mount() es responsable de montar particiones en un dispositivo de almacenamiento masivo USB. Cuando encuentra una entrada de partición extendida en la tabla de particiones, se llama a sí misma recursivamente para montar la siguiente partición lógica.\n\nEsta recursión ocurre en _ux_host_class_storage_partition_read(), que analiza hasta cuatro entradas de partición. Si se encuentra una partición extendida (con el tipo UX_HOST_CLASS_STORAGE_PARTITION_EXTENDED o EXTENDED_LBA_MAPPED), el código invoca:\n _ux_host_class_storage_media_mount(storage, sector + _ux_utility_long_get(...));\n\nNo hay límite en la profundidad de recursión ni seguimiento de los sectores visitados. Como resultado, una imagen de disco maliciosa o malformada puede incluir cadenas cíclicas o excesivamente profundas de particiones extendidas, lo que hace que la función recurra hasta que ocurra un desbordamiento de pila."
