CVE-2011-0431
The afs_linux_lock function in afs/LINUX/osi_vnodeops.c in the kernel module in OpenAFS 1.4.14, 1.4.12, 1.4.7, and possibly other versions does not properly handle errors, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service via unknown vectors.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.00%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
