UBUNTU-CVE-2017-14340

The XFSISREALTIMEINODE macro in fs/xfs/xfslinux.h in the Linux kernel before 4.13.2 does not verify that a filesystem has a realtime device, which allows local users to cause a denial of service NULL pointer dereference and OOPS via vectors related to setting an RHINHERIT flag on a directory...

CVE-2017-14340

A flaw was found where the XFS filesystem code mishandles a user-settable inode flag in the Linux kernel prior to 4.14-rc1. This can cause a local denial of service via a kernel panic...

kernel: Memory leaks in xfs_attr_list.c error paths

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's implementation of XFS file attributes. Two memory leaks were detected in xfsattrshortformlist and xfsattr3leaflistint when running a docker container backed by xfs/overlay2. A dedicated attacker could possible exhaust all memory and create a denial of servic...

kernel: race condition between direct and memory-mapped I/O in fs/xfs/xfs_aops.c

It was found that the Linux kernel can hit a BUGON statement in the xfsgetblocks in the fs/xfs/xfsaops.c because of a race condition between direct and memory-mapped I/O associated with a hole in a file that is handled with BUGON instead of an I/O failure. This allows a local unprivileged attacke...
