CVE-2015-3285  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade openafs to version 1.6.13 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. The pioctl for the OSD FS command in OpenAFS before 1.6.13 uses the wrong pointer when writing the results of the RPC, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and kernel panic) via a crafted OSD FS command.
