A local user can trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) by exploiting a race condition in the autofs responder between asynchronous enumeration completion and map invalidation. By repeatedly sending concurrent map enumeration and invalidation requests, an attacker can cause memory to leak, leading to excessive memory consumption that can disrupt or crash the autofs service.","published":"2026-10-06T21:17:04.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-13T15:35:49.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"secalert@redhat.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":4.7,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-772"],"affected":["fedoraproject/sssd","redhat/openshift container platform","redhat/enterprise linux"],"epss":{"score":0.00125,"percentile":0.02177,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[{"date":"2026-10-07","score":0.00095,"percentile":0.00617}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.13%).
