| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear CALLBACK_RUNNING on failed delegation recall queue
nfsd_break_one_deleg() sets NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING via test_and_set_bit
at entry to serialize recall work, then calls nfsd4_run_cb() to queue
the recall. When the queue attempt fails the refcount bump is undone,
but the RUNNING bit is left set. The only site that clears the bit is
nfsd41_destroy_cb() (fs/nfsd/nfs4callback.c), which runs from the
workqueue and is therefore unreachable when nothing was queued.
The bit becomes a permanent latch on dp->dl_recall.cb_flags: every
subsequent break_lease() on the same delegation hits the early-return
guard in nfsd_break_one_deleg() and silently skips the recall, so the
delegation is never broken and the conflicting open or lock stalls.
Fix by clearing NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING on the !queued branch alongside
the refcount_dec. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: clear opcnt on compound arg release to prevent OOB read
nfsd4_release_compoundargs() resets args->ops to the inline iops[8]
array when the dynamically-allocated ops buffer is freed, but leaves
args->opcnt at its original value (which can be up to 200 for NFSv4.1+
compounds).
If rq_status_counter is stuck at an odd value (which can happen when
nfsd_dispatch() hits an error path after setting it odd), the RPC
status dumpit handler reads min(opcnt, 16) entries from args->ops[].
Since iops only has 8 elements and is the last field in struct
nfsd4_compoundargs, reading indices 8-15 accesses adjacent slab memory
and leaks it to userspace via netlink.
Zero opcnt unconditionally in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() so stale
compound metadata is never exposed through the status interface.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: defer vfree of compound ops to fix rpc_status UAF
The rpc_status netlink dumpit walks every in-flight svc_rqst under
rcu_read_lock and, for NFSv4 requests, reads opnums out of
args->ops[]. But args->ops is a separate vmalloc buffer freed
synchronously by vfree() in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() at the end
of every compound. The dumpit's rcu_read_lock pins the svc_rqst
struct itself (freed via kfree_rcu), but nothing defers the vfree
of the ops buffer across the RCU grace period. A concurrent compound
completion can therefore free the buffer while the dumpit is reading
it — a use-after-free on vmalloc memory.
The trailing seqcount recheck (smp_load_acquire of rq_status_counter)
cannot undo a load that already retired against freed memory.
Fix by replacing vfree(args->ops) with kvfree_rcu_mightsleep(), which
defers the free until after an RCU grace period. This makes the
existing rcu_read_lock in the dumpit sufficient to protect the read.
The tradeoff is that completed compound ops buffers (up to
200 * sizeof(struct nfsd4_op)) persist in memory slightly longer,
across one grace period, before being reclaimed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: don't free session slots that are still in use
nfsd4_sequence() can free the very slot it is currently processing.
When the session shrinker has reduced se_target_maxslots below
se_fchannel.maxreqs, the shrink path checks three conditions before
calling free_session_slots():
1. se_target_maxslots < maxreqs (shrink was advertised)
2. slot->sl_generation == se_slot_gen (slot is up-to-date)
3. seq->maxslots <= se_target_maxslots (client acknowledges)
However, seq->slotid is never checked against se_target_maxslots.
A client using a slot in the range [se_target_maxslots, maxreqs) can
satisfy all three conditions: its slot has the current generation
(set by a prior SEQUENCE), and it sends sa_highest_slotid <=
se_target_maxslots to acknowledge the reduction.
free_session_slots() then kfrees every slot at index >=
se_target_maxslots, including the caller's own slot. The function
continues to write sl_seqid, sl_flags, sl_generation, and stores the
dangling pointer in cstate->slot. Later, nfsd4_store_cache_entry()
copies up to maxresp_cached bytes of the compound reply into the freed
sl_data[] array, corrupting whatever slab object now occupies that
address.
Additionally, a concurrent thread processing SEQUENCE on a different
high-numbered slot can have its slot freed out from under it.
NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE is set under nn->client_lock before the lock is
released, so any concurrent thread past SEQUENCE will have its slot
marked. However, free_session_slots() does not check NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE
before freeing.
Fix both problems by:
1. Checking that the current request's slotid is below the shrink
boundary.
2. Scanning slots in the to-be-freed range for NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE and
deferring the shrink if any are active. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: drop the stateid, not the stateowner, on seqid_op replay retry
In nfs4_preprocess_seqid_op() the stateid is obtained from
nfsd4_lookup_stateid(), which holds a reference on the nfs4_stid
(sc_count) but takes no reference on the stateowner. openlockstateid()
merely casts that stid and likewise takes no reference.
When nfsd4_cstate_assign_replay() returns -EAGAIN (the replay owner is
being torn down, RP_UNHASHED) it has not taken a stateowner reference on
that path. The error handling nevertheless called
nfs4_put_stateowner(stp->st_stateowner), dropping an so_count reference
the function never acquired -- risking a stateowner refcount underflow and
use-after-free -- while leaking the sc_count reference held on the stid.
The leaked stid reference can also stall a concurrent
nfsd4_close_open_stateid() waiting for sc_count to drop.
Drop the reference actually held -- the stid -- before retrying. The
stateowner stays alive through the reference held by the stid. This mirrors
the open path in nfsd4_process_open1(), where the put balances a reference
that path explicitly holds on the stateowner. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: ensure nfsd_file_do_acquire() does not use a non-opened file
->atomic_open is permitted to return success without actually opening
the file. It indicates this by calling finish_no_open().
This means dentry_create() can return a file which hasn't been opened.
This is extremely unlikely as ->atomic_open handlers typically
use finish_no_open() only for already existing files, and dentry_create()
isn't called in that case, and the parent being locked should prevent
races.
However out of an abundance of caution it seems wise to teach nfsd to
only use the file returned by dentry_create() if FMODE_OPENED is set,
indicating that it has in fact been opened. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix BUG_ON in nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid on racing delegation revoke
nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid reads fp->fi_deleg_file without holding
fi_lock when the parent stateid is a delegation. A concurrent delegation
revoke via the laundromat can clear fi_deleg_file under fi_lock, causing
nfsd_file_get() to return NULL and triggering the BUG_ON.
This race is client-reachable: two NFS clients can trigger it by having
one hold a delegation while another opens the same file to force a
recall. When the first client doesn't respond to the recall, the
laundromat revokes it. A concurrent LAYOUTGET from any client using the
delegation stateid hits the race window.
Fix this by taking fi_lock around the fi_deleg_file read in the
SC_TYPE_DELEG path, matching the locking discipline of the
find_any_file() arm, and replacing the BUG_ON with a graceful error
return that cleans up the partially-initialized layout stateid. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix clock domain mismatch in clients_still_reclaiming()
clients_still_reclaiming() computes a deadline from nn->boot_time
(CLOCK_REALTIME, ~1.7 billion) but compares it against
ktime_get_boottime_seconds() (CLOCK_BOOTTIME, seconds since boot).
The comparison is always false — it would take ~54 years of uptime
for BOOTTIME to exceed the REALTIME-derived deadline.
This means any client can hold the server in grace indefinitely by
sending CLAIM_PREVIOUS OPEN requests, blocking all non-reclaim
operations for all other clients.
Add boot_time_bt (CLOCK_BOOTTIME) alongside the existing boot_time
and use it for the deadline computation. boot_time (CLOCK_REALTIME)
is preserved for its cl_boot clientid-nonce role. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix cpntf publish race in nfs4_init_cp_state
nfs4_alloc_init_cpntf_state() published the new cpntf entry into the
s2s_cp_stateids IDR (with cs_type set) in one s2s_cp_lock section, then
took the lock again to list_add() it onto p_stid->sc_cp_list. In the gap
the entry is reachable by so_id but cp_list is still {NULL,NULL} from
kzalloc. A racing OFFLOAD_CANCEL (so_id is echoed to the client as
cnr_stateid, so any NFSv4.2 client can drive it) reaches
manage_cpntf_state() -> _free_cpntf_state_locked() and does list_del() on
the zeroed list_head, oopsing the server.
Fold the cs_type assignment and the list_add() into the same critical
section as idr_alloc_cyclic(), so a concurrent lookup either misses the
entry or sees a fully linked cp_list. INIT_LIST_HEAD() the entry after
allocation and switch _free_cpntf_state_locked() to list_del_init() so a
stale unlink is a no-op. nfs4_init_copy_state() passes NULL p_stid and
skips the list_add, preserving NFS4_COPY_STID semantics. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix dentry ref leak on V4ROOT export filehandle lookup
nfsd_set_fh_dentry() leaks the dentry reference from
exportfs_decode_fh_raw() when the NFS3_FHSIZE or NFS_FHSIZE
switch cases detect NFSEXP_V4ROOT and goto out. The out: label
calls exp_put() but never dput(dentry), and fhp->fh_dentry was
never assigned so fh_put() cannot compensate.
A crafted NFSv3 filehandle targeting a V4ROOT export's fsid
triggers the leak on every request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix fcache_disposal UAF by inlining dispose state into nfsd_net
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() defers fput() to nfsd service threads
via a per-net freeme queue, preventing the shrinker and GC worker from
bearing the cost of closing files (see ffb402596147). However, the
queue lives in a separately-allocated struct nfsd_fcache_disposal that
is freed by nfsd_free_fcache_disposal_net() during per-net teardown.
The global shrinker, laundrette, and fsnotify callbacks can still be
inside nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() dereferencing that pointer,
causing a use-after-free.
Inline the spinlock and freeme list directly into struct nfsd_net (as
fcache_dispose_lock and fcache_dispose_list), eliminating the separately
allocated struct nfsd_fcache_disposal entirely. These fields now have
the same lifetime as the net namespace itself, so there is no dangling
pointer to chase.
nfsd_file_cache_start_net() now just initializes the inline fields and
cannot fail due to allocation. nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() drains
the inline list directly instead of freeing a separate struct. The
alloc/free helpers are removed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix layout fence worker double-reference race
The workqueue core clears WORK_STRUCT_PENDING before the callback
is invoked, so delayed_work_pending() in lm_breaker_timedout() can
return false while the fence worker is already running. This lets
the breaker take a duplicate sc_count reference and schedule a new
worker that coalesces with the in-progress one. The extra reference
is never put, leaking the layout stateid.
Replace the racy delayed_work_pending() check with an
ls_fence_inflight boolean set atomically with
refcount_inc_not_zero() under ls_lock, and cleared under ls_lock
before the final nfs4_put_stid() on the dispose path; the retry
path intentionally retains it. Remove the self-rearm
mod_delayed_work() at the top of the worker. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix nfsd_file leak on inter-server COPY setup failure
When nfsd4_setup_inter_ssc() fails, nfsd4_copy() returns
nfserr_offload_denied directly, bypassing the out: label where
release_copy_files() would drop the nf_dst reference taken by
nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op(). Each failed inter-server COPY
leaks one nfsd_file, pinning file/inode/dentry/vfsmount.
Fix by setting status and jumping to out: instead of returning
directly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix null dereference in nfsd4_setattr for deleg timestamp attrs
When a SETATTR request includes FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS or
FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_MODIFY in the attribute bitmap, nfsd4_setattr()
sets deleg_attrs=true and calls nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() to validate
the stateid.
If the client supplies the NFSv4 "one stateid" (all-0xFF bytes),
check_special_stateids() returns nfs_ok without populating the output
nfs4_stid pointer, because the special-stateid path in
nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() jumps to done: with s==NULL, and the
"if (s)" block that would set *cstid is skipped. The local variable `st`
remains NULL.
Back in nfsd4_setattr(), the if (deleg_attrs) block then unconditionally
dereferences st->sc_type (at offset 4 from NULL), causing a kernel oops.
This is remotely triggerable by any NFSv4 client: send COMPOUND [PUTROOTFH,
SETATTR(ONE_STATEID, {bmval2=FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS, ...})].
No authentication, delegation, or prior state is required.
Fix by adding a NULL check before the dereference. A special stateid is
not a delegation stateid, so the existing nfserr_bad_stateid return value
is already correct; we only need to guard the pointer dereference itself. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix partial-write detection in nfsd_direct_write
nfsd_direct_write() walks a list of write segments and, after each
vfs_iocb_iter_write(), tries to detect a short write so the loop can
stop before placing the next segment at a wrong file offset:
host_err = vfs_iocb_iter_write(file, kiocb, &segments[i].iter);
if (host_err < 0)
return host_err;
*cnt += host_err;
if (host_err < segments[i].iter.count)
break; /* partial write */
vfs_iocb_iter_write() runs the iter through ->write_iter(), which
advances the iter by the number of bytes written. By the time the
check runs, segments[i].iter.count is the residual, not the original
request length:
before write_iter: iter.count == original_len
after write_iter: iter.count == original_len - host_err
The condition then reduces to host_err < original_len - host_err, so
the break fires only when less than half of the segment was written.
Any short write completing between 50% and 99% of the segment slips
through; the loop advances to the next segment with kiocb->ki_pos
only bumped by the short amount, writing the next segment's payload
at the wrong offset and over-reporting *cnt to the NFS client.
Snapshot the segment's byte count before the write and compare
host_err against that snapshot so any short write breaks the loop. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix possible fh_compose of wrong dentry in nfsd4_create_file()
dentry_create() can hypothetically provide a different dentry than the
one passed in. This could happen, for example, if the exported
filesystem is NFS, and the server returned to OPEN a filehandle which
matched a directory that was already in the dcache. Clearly this would
not be expected!
If this were to happen the dentry (child) that was already stored in
resfhp could be freed and later dereferenced.
We shouldn't call fh_compose() until we are certain that we have the
final dentry, so this patch moved the fh_compose() call to two places:
one for the case where the target already exists, and one after
dentry_create() where it was created. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix stale s2s_cp_stateids IDR entry for async COPY
For an async COPY, nfsd4_copy() called nfs4_init_copy_state() before
dup_copy_fields(), so the s2s_cp_stateids IDR was pointed at
&u->copy->cp_stateid -- memory in the per-rqstp COMPOUND buffer that is
reused by the next request. dup_copy_fields() copies only the value into
async_copy, so the IDR slot dangled at the transient buffer for the whole
background copy. Any IDR walker then dereferences reused request memory:
the laundromat reads cs_type from it and, if the bytes look like an
expired NFS4_COPYNOTIFY_STID, follows into
refcount_dec()/idr_remove()/kfree() on garbage; manage_cpntf_state() has
the same exposure via idr_find().
Duplicate the fields first, then register the stateid on the stable
async_copy. result->cb_stateid is unchanged. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix UAF in async copy cancel and shutdown
An async copy could be freed or used after free while a teardown caller
(OFFLOAD_CANCEL, nfsd4_shutdown_copy, nfsd4_cancel_copy_by_sb) raced the
copy kthread:
- find_async_copy() bumped copy->refcount but left the copy on
clp->async_copies, so the reaper's cleanup_async_copy() could run
release_copy_files() concurrently with a cancel/shutdown caller. Both
put and NULL nf_src/nf_dst without a common lock, double-putting the
nfsd_file and freeing it early.
- nfsd4_do_async_copy() set NFSD4_COPY_F_STOPPED before its final uses
of the copy (nfsd_update_cmtime_attr() on copy->nf_dst,
nfsd4_send_cb_offload()). nfsd4_stop_copy() treats a set STOPPED bit
as "kthread done, skip kthread_stop()", so a teardown caller ran
release_copy_files() -- which puts and NULLs nf_dst -- while the
kthread still dereferenced it (NULL/UAF).
- copy->copy_task was never pinned. The one-shot kthread self-reaps on
return, so kthread_stop()'s get_task_struct() could touch a freed
task_struct.
- co_cb is embedded in the copy, but nfsd4_send_cb_offload() held a
reference only on the client, so a concurrent teardown could free
the copy while the CB_OFFLOAD callback was in flight.
Fix the teardown lifetime as a whole:
- find_async_copy() unlinks the copy (clear cp_clp, list_del_init)
under async_lock; the cancel, shutdown, and sb-cancel paths drop the
list-membership reference via nfs4_put_copy() after nfsd4_stop_copy().
Drop the now-redundant list_del fixup from cleanup_async_copy().
- Because unlinking hides the copy from the reaper, its
cleanup_async_copy() can no longer remove the copy's s2s_cp_stateids
entry; the cancel/shutdown/sb-cancel paths now call
nfs4_free_copy_state() themselves (while cp_clp is still valid) so
the entry does not dangle at freed memory for the laundromat and
manage_cpntf_state() to dereference.
- Give the kthread its own reference, taken in nfsd4_copy() before
wake_up_process() and dropped at the end of nfsd4_do_async_copy();
call wake_up_process() before list_add().
- Pin the task_struct with get_task_struct() in nfsd4_copy(), released
in nfs4_put_copy(), so kthread_stop() is safe whenever the kthread
exits. Set NFSD4_COPY_F_STOPPED only in nfsd4_stop_copy(), which now
always kthread_stop()s before release_copy_files(); completion is
still reported via NFSD4_COPY_F_COMPLETED, so
nfsd4_has_active_async_copies() is unaffected. Each teardown caller
removes the copy from clp->async_copies first, so kthread_stop() runs
exactly once.
- Take a copy reference in nfsd4_send_cb_offload(), dropped in
nfsd4_cb_offload_release(). The kthread still holds its own reference
there, so the refcount_inc() cannot race the final free.
- Read cp_clp with smp_load_acquire() to pair with the unordered
set_bit()/clear_bit() writers (Documentation/atomic_bitops.rst). |

nfsd: fix XDR length calculation in nfsd4_ff_encode_layoutget
The XDR buffer size calculation in nfsd4_ff_encode_layoutget() has
multiple errors that can result in either an out-of-bounds write or
leaking uninitialized kernel memory to the client:
- fh_len doesn't account for XDR padding on the file handle data
- uid and gid lengths use "8 + len" but xdr_encode_opaque() actually
writes "4 + xdr_align_size(len)" bytes
- ds_len omits the flags and stats_collect_hint fields (8 bytes),
while len's header constant overestimates by 8 bytes -- these
partially cancel but leave a net mismatch
The worst case occurs with short strings (e.g. uid=0, gid=0 with an
odd-sized file handle), where the function writes up to 5 bytes past
the reserved XDR buffer. Conversely, when string lengths happen to be
4-byte aligned, the reservation is too large and stale buffer content
is sent to the client.
Fix this by breaking out every encoded field explicitly in the ds_len
calculation, using xdr_align_size() for all variable-length opaque
fields, and correcting the header constants. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix XDR padding calculation in ff_encode_getdeviceinfo
nfsd4_ff_encode_getdeviceinfo() computes the da_addr_body reservation
as 16 + netid_len + addr_len, but the subsequent xdr_encode_opaque()
calls emit 8 + round_up(netid_len, 4) + round_up(addr_len, 4) bytes.
The mismatch means the declared da_addr_body length exceeds the actual
encoded data by 2-8 bytes on every flexfile GETDEVICEINFO reply,
leaking stale reply-page content to the client and mis-aligning the
subsequent version list decode.
Use xdr_align_size() for each string length to match what
xdr_encode_opaque() actually writes. |
