CVE-2015-0199 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability affecting the mmfslinux kernel module in IBM General Parallel File System (GPFS) versions 3.4, 3.5, and 4.1. A local attacker can trigger memory corruption by making unspecified ioctl calls to a character device. With a CVSS score of 4.9, this vulnerability is of medium severity, requiring local access with low attack complexity to achieve a complete denial of service. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or inclusion in the CISA KEV catalog, and community discussion and media coverage are minimal.
