CVE-2016-7118

fs/fcntl.c in the "aufs 3.2.x+setfl-debian" patch in the linux-image package 3.2.0-4 kernel 3.2.81-1 in Debian wheezy mishandles FSETFL fcntl calls on directories, which allows local users to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference and system crash via standard filesystem operations, a...

CVE-2016-7118

CVE-2016-7118 affects the aufs 3.2.x patch in the Linux kernel on Debian Wheezy (kernel 3.2.81-1). Calling fcntl() on a directory on an AUFS filesystem can trigger an oops, enabling local denial-of-service. Debian’s DLA-609-1 fixes this in linux 3.2.81-2; Jessie had earlier fixes for other CVEs, ...
