Summary

The kernel in IBM AIX 5.2 and 5.3 does not properly handle resizing JFS2 filesystems on concurrent volume groups spread across multiple nodes, which allows local users of one node to cause a denial of service (remote node crash) by using chfs or lreducelv to reduce a filesystem's size.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

0.36% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 30% of all scored CVEs.
