### [CVE-2021-3178](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-3178) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Product&message=n%2Fa&color=blue) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Version&message=n%2Fa&color=blue) ![](https://img.shields.io/static/v1?label=Vulnerability&message=n%2Fa&color=brighgreen) ### Description ** DISPUTED ** fs/nfsd/nfs3xdr.c in the Linux kernel through 5.10.8, when there is an NFS export of a subdirectory of a filesystem, allows remote attackers to traverse to other parts of the filesystem via READDIRPLUS. NOTE: some parties argue that such a subdirectory export is not intended to prevent this attack; see also the exports(5) no_subtree_check default behavior. ### POC #### Reference - https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=51b2ee7d006a736a9126e8111d1f24e4fd0afaa6 #### Github - https://github.com/ARPSyndicate/cvemon
