Descriptions
Stack consumption vulnerability in the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal function in fs/isofs/rock.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (uncontrolled recursion, and system crash or reboot) via a crafted iso9660 image with a CL entry referring to a directory entry that has a CL entry.
Vulnerabilidad de consumo de pila en la función parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal en fs/isofs/rock.c en el kernel de Linux hasta 3.16.1 permite a usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (recursividad sin control y caída o reinicio del sistema) a través de un imagen iso9660 manipulado con una entrada CL que se refiere a una entrada del directorio que tiene una entrada CL.
It was found that the parse_rock_ridge_inode_internal() function of the Linux kernel's ISOFS implementation did not correctly check relocated directories when processing Rock Ridge child link (CL) tags. An attacker with physical access to the system could use a specially crafted ISO image to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
