** Description changed:

- local dos because of journal_unmap_buffer()
+ The journal_unmap_buffer function in fs/jbd2/transaction.c in the Linux
+ kernel before 3.3.1 does not properly handle the _Delay and _Unwritten
+ buffer head states, which allows local users to cause a denial of
+ service (system crash) by leveraging the presence of an ext4 filesystem
+ that was mounted with a journal.
  
  Break-Fix: - 15291164b22a357cb211b618adfef4fa82fc0de3
