A critical stack-based buffer overflow in Das U-Boot’s NFS reply parsing — tracked as CVE-2019-14200 — exposes a long-standing attack surface for devices that use network boot or NFS-mounted filesystems during early boot, allowing malformed NFS replies to corrupt memory and, in the worst case...

An unbounded memcpy in U-Boot’s NFS reply handler left a wide swath of embedded and development hardware exposed to remote memory corruption and — in many realistic configurations — remote code execution during network boot operations, a defect formally tracked as CVE-2019-14198. (nvd.nist.gov)...

Das U‑Boot ships with a dangerous surprise in its NFS reply handling: a stack‑based buffer overflow in the nfs_mount_reply helper (tracked as CVE‑2019‑14203) that affects U‑Boot releases up through and including 2019.07 and — in certain configurations — permits remote attackers controlling a...

Das U‑Boot contained a network‑exposed memory‑safety flaw — CVE‑2019‑14197 — that allowed an attacker controlling or impersonating an NFS server to trigger an out‑of‑bounds read inside the NFS reply parser (nfs_read_reply), with real potential to leak sensitive memory and, in certain...

A subtle error-handling bug in the Linux kernel's NFS code — tracked as CVE-2025-38400 — has been fixed: when the initialization routine nfs_fs_proc_net_init fails, the kernel could leave behind a /proc/net/rpc/nfs entry and later log warnings or leak state during namespace teardown, a problem...

A recently assigned CVE, CVE-2025-68349, identifies a stability flaw in the Linux kernel’s NFSv4/pNFS client code where a missing flag clear can let the kernel attempt to reference a null layout during layoutcommit handling — a condition that causes a kernel crash and creates a local...

The Linux kernel has a newly published security advisory — CVE-2025-40273 — describing a flaw in the NFS server (nfsd) state-management code: a copynotify stateid can remain referenced when its parent open state is freed, leading to list corruption and a kernel OOPS when laundromat later...

NFS still feels like the power-user option — awkward to configure, but when it’s right it can absolutely smoke SMB for many common Linux/Unix file‑sharing workloads. Background / Overview Local file sharing on home networks and small labs is dominated by two families of protocols: SMB (Server...

When it comes to configuring network-attached storage (NAS) for home or small business use, the debate between Server Message Block (SMB) and Network File System (NFS) as file-sharing protocols often becomes a focal point. But what’s sometimes overlooked is the practical reality that using...

Is it possible to change the default mount options for NFS mounts under windows 7? I have my mp3s on a file server, and windows likes to 'lock' it, and I can not play my files if its mounted with the lock option, so I have to disconnect, and go to a command prompt, and remount to play them...

Severity Rating: Important Revision Note: V1.0 (February 12, 2013) Bulletin published. Summary: This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow denial of service if an attacker attempts a file operation on...
