Title: Linux Kernel "gfs2_quota" Structure Write Local Privilege
Escalation
Description: The Linux kernel is exposed to a local
privilege escalation issue affecting the "gfs2" file system.

updates to the structure are not correctly written to disk. This can
result in a buffer overflow condition which may lead to memory
