Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

A flaw was found in parted. A heap-based buffer overflow can occur when processing a specially crafted FAT32 filesystem due to an integer calculation error during buffer allocation. A local attacker could exploit this by enticing a user or automated service to open a malicious filesystem image, resulting in an application crash leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) or potential memory corruption.
