How far exploitation has got

  1. No public code known
  2. Proof of concept
  3. Proof of concept, verified
  4. A Metasploit module
  5. Exploited in the wild
  6. Used in ransomware campaigns

Timeline

2026-09-03first spoke of it: A stack overflow vulnerability was found in gfs2-utils. The hash table traversal code in metawalk.c uses alloca() with an exponentially-derived size from the untrusted on-disk di_depth field without bounds validation. A crafted GFS2 filesystem image with a large di_depth value causes stack exhaustion and a denial of service when processed by fsck.gfs2, gfs2_edit, or savemeta.NVD

A stack overflow vulnerability was found in gfs2-utils. The hash table traversal code in metawalk.c uses alloca() with an exponentially-derived size from the untrusted on-disk di_depth field without bounds validation.
