Full title: Linux Kernel EXT4 Error Handling Denial Of Service Vulnerability 
Category: dos / poc
Platform: linux
Mounting a crafted EXT4 image as read-only leads to a kernel panic. Since the mounting procedure is a privileged operation, an attacker is probably not able to trigger this vulnerability on the commandline. Instead the automatic mounting feature of the GUI via a crafted USB-device is required.
