Created: Oct 31, 2018    Updated: Dec 16, 2018
Resolved Date: Nov 18, 2018
Found In Version: 6.0.0.38
Fix Version: 6.0.0.38
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux 6
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel before 4.17, a local attacker able to set attributes on an xfs filesystem could make this filesystem non-operational until the next mount by triggering an unchecked error condition during an xfs attribute change, because xfs_attr_shortform_addname in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr.c mishandles ATTR_REPLACE operations with conversion of an attr from short to long form.
