CVE-2014-2038
Estado: ModificadaBaja (2.1)—
La función nfs_can_extend_write en fs/nfs/write.c en el kernel de Linux anterior a 3.13.3 se basa en una delegación de escritura para extender una operación de escritura sin cierta verificación actualizada, lo que permite a usuarios locales obtener información sensible de la memoria del kernel en circunstancias oportunistas mediante la escritura a un archivo en un sistema de archivos NFS y luego leyendo el mismo archivo.
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
- Puntuación base: 2.1
