Description

The afs_linux_lock function in afs/LINUX/osi_vnodeops.c in the kernel module in OpenAFS 1.4.14, 1.4.12, 1.4.7, and possibly other versions does not properly handle errors, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via unknown vectors. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
