Hi Horms,
there has been a CVE assignment for an overflow in xdr.c, which can be
exploited by crafted data in the nfsacl protocol: CAN-2005-2500
Please see http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2500
for some links to patches. I suspect it is already fixed in kernel-2.6,
but 2.6.8 and 2.4.27 might need backports.

Cheers,
        Moritz
