The (1) real_lookup and (2) __lookup_hash functions in fs/namei.c in the
vfs implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.25.15 do not prevent
creation of a child dentry for a deleted (aka S_DEAD) directory, which
allows local users to cause a denial of service (“overflow” of the UBIFS
orphan area) via a series of attempted file creations within deleted
directories.
