Candidate: CVE-2009-0746
Description:
 The make_indexed_dir function in fs/ext4/namei.c in the Linux kernel
 2.6.27 before 2.6.27.19 and 2.6.28 before 2.6.28.7 does not validate
 a certain rec_len field, which allows local users to cause a denial
 of service (OOPS) by attempting to mount a crafted ext4 filesystem.

Ubuntu-Description:
Notes:
 jmm> ext4 is marked as experimental and the vulnerability fairly
 jmm> obscure, I don't think we should spend energy on this. Dann,
 jmm> if you don't object I'll mark this as "unimportant" in the
 jmm> security tracker
