ELSA-2012-14451 advisory.
- The ext4_fill_flex_info function in fs/ext4/super.c in the Linux kernel before 3.2.2, on the x86 platform
and unspecified other platforms, allows user-assisted remote attackers to trigger inconsistent filesystem-
groups data and possibly cause a denial of service via a malformed ext4 filesystem containing a super
block with a large FLEX_BG group size (aka s_log_groups_per_flex value). NOTE: this vulnerability exists
because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-4307. (CVE-2012-2100)
