| Vetor | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions 2.6.x up to 2.6.18
Description
The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service, resulting in a crash, by utilizing a malformed file stream. This triggers a NULL pointer dereference in the superblock doinit function. The issue can be demonstrated using an HFS filesystem image when SELinux hooks are enabled.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions 2.6.x up to 2.6.18, consider disabling SELinux hooks as a temporary workaround to minimize the risk of exploitation.
