Score breakdown

An issue was discovered in fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_attr_leaf.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.3. An OOPS may occur for a corrupted xfs image after xfs_da_shrink_inode() is called with a NULL bp.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

Wen Xu discovered that the XFS filesystem implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly handle an error condition with a corrupted xfs image. An attacker could use this to construct a malicious xfs image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash).
