CVE-2014-6410

Linux Kernel < 3.16.3 - Denial of Service via UDF Filesystem ICB Indirection

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The __udf_read_inode function in fs/udf/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.3 does not restrict the amount of ICB indirection, which allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop or stack consumption) via a UDF filesystem with a crafted inode.
