A flaw was found in the way Linux kernel's Journaling Block Device (JBD) handled invalid log first block value. An attacker able to mount malicious ext3 or ext4 image could use this flaw to crash the system. Upstream commit: 8762202dd0d6e46854f786bdb6fb3780a1625efe Reference: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=753341 Thanks, -- Petr Matousek / Red Hat Security Response Team
