Vulnerability Summary

The ext4_decode_error function in fs/ext4/super.c in the ext4 filesystem in the Linux kernel prior to 2.6.32 allows user-assisted remote malicious users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference), and possibly have unspecified other impact, via a crafted read-only filesystem that lacks a journal.

Amerigo Wang and Eric Sesterhenn discovered that the HFS and ext4 filesystems did not correctly check certain disk structures If a user were tricked into mounting a specially crafted filesystem, a remote attacker could crash the system or gain root privileges (CVE-2009-4020, CVE-2009-4308) ...
NOTE: This kernel update marks the final planned kernel security update for the 2624 kernel in the Debian release 'etch' Although security support for 'etch' officially ended on Feburary 15th, 2010, this update was already in preparation before that date Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial ...
