Buffer overflow in the fuse_notify_inval_entry function in fs/fuse/dev.c in the Linux kernel before 3.1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG_ON and system crash) by leveraging the ability to mount a FUSE filesystem.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a Linux kernel crash bug in FUSE handling. A local user who can mount a FUSE filesystem could trigger a buffer overflow path that causes a kernel BUG_ON and system crash. The sources describe denial of service, not data theft or remote compromise. Most relevant exposure is older Linux kernels before 3.1, especially multi-user systems, shared hosting, appliances, or legacy embedded systems where local users can mount FUSE filesystems. Enterprise distributions may have backported fixes, so kernel version alone is not definitive. Treat as a stability and availability risk for legacy Linux estates, not as a confirmed remote breach issue. Prioritize remediation where many users share a host or where a crash would affect business-critical services. Mitigation focus: Upgrade to a vendor-supported kernel containing the FUSE size-check fix.; Review distribution advisories for backported fixes on enterprise kernels.; Restrict unnecessary local FUSE mounting where operationally feasible..
