An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in the Linux kernel's seq_file in the filesystem layer. An unprivileged local attacker can exploit this vulnerability by creating, mounting, and deleting a deep directory structure whose total path length exceeds 1GB. A successful attack results in privilege escalation.
