Descriptions

The nfs_lock function in fs/nfs/file.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.9 does not properly remove POSIX locks on files that are setgid without group-execute permission, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and system crash) by locking a file on an NFS filesystem and then changing this file's permissions, a related issue to CVE-2010-0727.

La función nfs_lock en fs/nfs/file.c en el kernel Linux v2.6.9 no elimina adecuadamente el POSIX locks en los archivos setgid sin permisos group-execute, lo que permite a usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (BUG y caída de sistema) bloqueando un archivo en el sistema de archivos NFS y luego cambiando sus permisos, una vulnerabilidad relacionada con CVE-2010-0727.
