CVE-2014-1453

FreeBSD 8.3-10.0 - Authenticated Denial of Service via NFS Directory File Handle Locking

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The NFS server (nfsserver) in FreeBSD 8.3 through 10.0 does not acquire locks in the proper order when converting a directory file handle to a vnode, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via vectors involving a thread that uses the correct locking order.
