Threat Intelligence
The probability is the direct output of the EPSS model, and conveys an overall sense of the threat of exploitation in the wild. The percentile measures the EPSS probability relative to all known EPSS scores. Note: This data is updated daily, relying on the latest available EPSS model version.

Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read in the nfsd_nl_rpc_status_get_dumpit process. An attacker can cause out-of-bounds or torn reads of adjacent memory by racing concurrent netlink and NFSv4 operations, potentially leading to information disclosure or denial of service. This is only exploitable if the attacker has local access and can issue NFSD_CMD_RPC_STATUS_GET requests within the nfsd network namespace.
Note: The Linux kernel project assigns a CVE to every bug fix it ships, whether or not the bug has been shown to be exploitable. This advisory was generated from that process and has not been individually assessed for exploitability. See the kernel's CVE process documentation: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/process/cve.rst
