SUSE CVE-2021-3492

Shiftfs, an out-of-tree stacking file system included in Ubuntu Linux kernels, did not properly handle faults occurring during copyfromuser correctly. These could lead to either a double-free situation or memory not being freed at all. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service kerne...

The vulnerability of the copy_from_user() function in the file system of the shiftfs filesystem in Linux’s operating system, which is related to the repeated release of memory, allows a perpetrator to gain access to confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause service failures.
