btrfs vulnerable to hash-DoS attack

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

since a couple people here are using btrfs (we, fortunately, are not), I
thought you might be interested in this blog entry:
<http://crypto.junod.info/2012/12/13/hash-dos-and-btrfs/>

Basically, it seems that if you create files with filenames that have
colliding CRC32 hashes, all kind of hell breaks loose.

Definitely an interesting read.

Regards,
