Doc Text:
A vulnerability was found in NFSv4.2 in the Linux kernel, where a server fails to correctly apply umask when creating a new object on filesystem without ACL support (for example, ext4 with the "noacl" mount option). This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a kernel information leak problem.

Description Dhananjay Arunesh 2020-08-17 04:34:29 UTC
A vulnerability was found in NFSv4.2 in the Linux kernel, where a server fails to apply umask correctly when creating a new object on filesystem without ACL support (for example, ext4 with the "noacl" mount option). This flaw could allow a local attacker with a user privilege to a kernel information leak problem.
