** Description changed: - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFS implementation. A local, - unprivileged user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service. + The NFS implementation in Linux kernel before 2.6.31-rc6 calls certain + functions without properly initializing certain data, which allows local + users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and + O_DIRECT oops), as demonstrated using diotest4 from LTP. Break-Fix: - 1ae88b2e446261c038f2c0c3150ffae142b227a2
