UnknownEPSS 0.41%

Last modified

CVE-2009-1336 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. fs/nfs/client.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.23 does not properly initialize a certain structure member that stores the maximum NFS filename length, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (OOPS) via a long filename, related to the encode_lookup function.. EPSS estimates a 0.41% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
