These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely, potentially leading to a disruption of protected information. The estimated number of potentially affected devices worldwide is not provided. There is no information about real-world incidents where this issue was exploited. Technical details about exploitation include the lack of checking for execute permission bits in the nfs permission function in fs/nfs/dir.c in the NFS client implementation in the Linux kernel 2.6.29.3 and earlier. **Recommendations** At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
