CVE-2013-3266 describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in the new NFS server in FreeBSD versions 8.0 through 9.1-RELEASE-p3. The nfsrvd_readdir function fails to validate if a READDIR request targets a directory, allowing remote attackers to trigger memory corruption or potentially arbitrary code execution by specifying a regular file. With a CVSS score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable with low attack complexity, potentially leading to partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage surrounding this CVE.
