Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
libdm (affected versions not specified)
Description
A flaw in the libdm configuration file parser allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by crafting a malicious Logical Volume Manager (LVM) metadata configuration with deeply nested structures. This leads to uncontrolled recursion, which exhausts the stack and causes any LVM command reading the metadata to crash.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
