Last modified

CVE-2010-2521 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple buffer overflows in fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c in the XDR implementation in the NFS server in the Linux kernel before 2.6.34-rc6 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted NFSv4 compound WRITE request, related to the read_buf and nfsd4_decode_compound functions.. EPSS estimates a 8.98% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
