Executive Summary

This vulnerability is caused by a bug in the filesystem traversal fallback path where the function fs/diriterate/diriterate.go:Next() attempts to access an element in an empty slice when ReadDir returns nil for an empty directory. This results in an index out of range panic, causing the application to crash.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can cause the affected application (OSV-SCALIBR) to crash due to a panic triggered by an out-of-range index access. This leads to a denial of service condition, potentially disrupting normal operations.
