CVE-2020-24394
Last modified
CVE-2020-24394 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.1/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel before 5.7.8, fs/nfsd/vfs.c (in the NFS server) can set incorrect permissions on new filesystem objects when the filesystem lacks ACL support, aka CID-22cf8419f131. This occurs because the current umask is not considered.. EPSS estimates a 0.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
