Security Advisory
CVE-2014-9731
CVE vulnerability detail — eXtreme Datacenter Security Operations
Description
The UDF filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.18.2 does not ensure that space is available for storing a symlink targets name along with a trailing 0 character, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a crafted filesystem image, related to fs/udf/symlink.c and fs/udf/unicode.c.
