** Description changed: - A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's encode_share_access() - implementation. A local, unprivileged user could use this flaw to - trigger a denial of service by creating a regular file on an NFSv4 - (Network File System version 4) file system via mknod(). + The encode_share_access function in fs/nfs/nfs4xdr.c in the Linux kernel + before 2.6.29 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and + system crash) by using the mknod system call with a pathname on an NFSv4 + filesystem. Break-Fix: - dc0b027dfadfcb8a5504f7d8052754bf8d501ab9
