The Linux kernel is the kernel used by the Linux Foundation’s open source operating system Linux. kernel is one of the kernel-based virtual machines. a security vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel, which stems from a problem found in fs/nfs/dir.c in the Linux kernel. If an application sets the O_DIRECTORY flag and tries to open a regular file, nfs_atomic_open() will perform a regular lookup. If the regular file is found, ENOTDIR should occur, but the server will return uninitialized data in the file descriptor. No detailed vulnerability details are currently available.
