| Vector | AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions through 3.16.3
Description
The issue is related to the udf read inode function in fs/udf/inode.c, which does not properly restrict the amount of ICB indirection. This allows an attacker with physical access to cause a denial of service, potentially resulting in an infinite loop or stack consumption, by using a UDF filesystem with a crafted inode.
Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions through 3.16.3, update to a version that contains a fix for this issue.
