Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 3.16.1

Description The issue is related to a stack consumption problem in the parse rock ridge inode internal function, allowing local users to cause a denial of service through crafted iso9660 images. This can lead to uncontrolled recursion and potentially cause a system crash or reboot.

Recommendations For Linux kernel versions prior to 3.16.1, update to version 3.16.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of iso9660 images to minimize the risk of exploitation.
