Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions linux-image-3.13.0 Linux kernel versions prior to 3.15

Description The issue affects the XFS implementation in the Linux kernel, where an old size value is improperly used during remote attribute replacement. This can be exploited locally to cause a denial of service, resulting in transaction overrun and data corruption, or possibly gain privileges by leveraging XFS filesystem access.

Recommendations For linux-image-3.13.0, update to a version later than 3.13.0 to mitigate the risk. For Linux kernel versions prior to 3.15, update to version 3.15 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the XFS filesystem to minimize the risk of exploitation.
