FKIE_CVE-2007-6599

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2008-01-04 02:46 - Updated: 2026-06-16 22:48
Severity
Summary
Race condition in fileserver in OpenAFS 1.3.50 through 1.4.5 and 1.5.0 through 1.5.27 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by simultaneously acquiring and giving back file callbacks, which causes the handler for the GiveUpAllCallBacks RPC to perform linked-list operations without the host_glock lock.
