CVE-2009-1961 (GCVE-0-2009-1961)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2009-06-06 18:00 – Updated: 2024-08-07 05:36
VLAI
Summary
The inode double locking code in fs/ocfs2/file.c in the Linux kernel 2.6.30 before 2.6.30-rc3, 2.6.27 before 2.6.27.24, 2.6.29 before 2.6.29.4, and possibly other versions down to 2.6.19 allows local users to cause a denial of service (prevention of file creation and removal) via a series of splice system calls that trigger a deadlock between the generic_file_splice_write, splice_from_pipe, and ocfs2_file_splice_write functions.
