CVE-2006-5158
The nlmclnt_mark_reclaim in clntlock.c in NFS lockd in Linux kernel before 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash) and deny access to NFS exports via unspecified vectors that trigger a kernel oops (null dereference)…
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.58%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
