NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream glusterfs package and not the glusterfs package as distributed by Ubuntu.

It was found that glusterfs server is vulnerable to multiple stack based buffer overflows due to functions in server-rpc-fopc.c allocating fixed size buffers using 'alloca(3)'. An authenticated attacker could exploit this by mounting a gluster volume and sending a string longer that the fixed buffer size to cause crash or potential code execution.
