| 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). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: gate nfs2 setacl by argp->mask
The NFSACL v2 SETACL path shares the decoder convention used by its
v3 sibling: nfsaclsvc_decode_setaclargs() fills in argp->acl_access
only when NFS_ACL is set in the request mask and argp->acl_default
only when NFS_DFACL is set, leaving the other pointer NULL because
the argument buffer is zeroed up to pc_argzero before decode.
nfsacld_proc_setacl() then hands both pointers to set_posix_acl()
unconditionally. set_posix_acl(idmap, dentry, type, NULL) is the VFS
"remove this ACL type" operation, so an omitted arm is
indistinguishable from an explicit request to delete that ACL. A
SETACL carrying only NFS_ACL silently strips the directory's default
ACL; mask=0 strips both.
This is the same defect just fixed in nfsd3_proc_setacl(); apply the
same remedy. Gate each set_posix_acl() call on its mask bit and
initialize error to 0 so that a request with neither bit set leaves
the on-disk ACLs untouched and returns success. The out_drop_lock
path and the unconditional posix_acl_release() in
nfsaclsvc_release_setacl() already tolerate the skipped arms. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: gate nfs3 setacl by argp->mask
nfsd3_proc_setacl() calls set_posix_acl() unconditionally for both
ACL_TYPE_ACCESS and ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT, passing argp->acl_access and
argp->acl_default verbatim. The NFSv3 ACL decoder only populates
those pointers when the corresponding mask bit is set:
nfs3svc_decode_setaclargs()
if (args->mask & NFS_ACL) decode into acl_access
if (args->mask & NFS_DFACL) decode into acl_default
/* otherwise the pointer stays NULL (pc_argzero) */
nfsd3_proc_setacl()
set_posix_acl(.., ACL_TYPE_ACCESS, argp->acl_access)
set_posix_acl(.., ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT, argp->acl_default)
set_posix_acl(idmap, dentry, type, NULL) is the VFS "remove this
ACL type" operation. A NULL pointer that means "the client did not
send this arm" is therefore indistinguishable from "the client
asked to remove this ACL". A SETACL with mask=NFS_ACL silently
drops the directory's default ACL; mask=0 drops both.
The sibling nfsd3_proc_getacl() already consults argp->mask before
touching each arm; mirror that in setacl.
Fix by wrapping each set_posix_acl() call in the matching mask bit
check and initializing error to 0 before inode_lock so that a
request with neither bit set leaves the on-disk ACLs untouched and
returns nfs_ok. The out_drop_lock path and the unconditional
posix_acl_release() at out: are preserved; both NULL-tolerate the
skipped arms. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: hold rcu across localio cmpxchg retry
nfsd_file objects are freed via call_rcu (filecache.c:296), and
nfsd_file_slab is created without SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
(KMEM_CACHE(nfsd_file, 0) at filecache.c:789), so the slab page
backing a freed nfsd_file becomes freely reclaimable once the RCU
grace period elapses.
The again: retry block in nfsd_open_local_fh() loads a pointer with
cmpxchg and then calls nfsd_file_get(new) (which is
refcount_inc_not_zero) without holding rcu_read_lock. The sole caller
nfs_open_local_fh() drops rcu_read_lock before invoking this helper,
so no outer reader-side critical section covers the load.
CPU 0 (nfsd_open_local_fh) CPU 1 (nfsd_file_put_local)
----- -----
new = cmpxchg(pnf, NULL, ...)
nf = xchg(pnf, NULL)
nfsd_file_put(nf)
last ref -> call_rcu()
/* grace period elapses;
slab page recycled */
nfsd_file_get(new)
refcount_inc_not_zero(&new->nf_ref)
/* operates on recycled memory */
A non-zero word at the nf_ref offset of the recycled object makes the
refcount bump appear to succeed, and the caller then dereferences
new->nf_net and new->nf_file out of freed memory.
Fix by taking rcu_read_lock() immediately before the cmpxchg and
releasing it on all three exits of the if (new) block: the goto-again
retry, the lost-race cleanup path, and the install-succeeded path.
nfsd_file_put() and nfsd_net_put() stay outside the RCU section so
they remain free to block. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: initialize copy-notify stateid before publishing it
nfsd4_copy_notify() finished initializing the cpntf state after
nfs4_alloc_init_cpntf_state() had already linked it into the
s2s_cp_stateids IDR and the parent's sc_cp_list, with cs_count == 1 (the
membership reference) and none held for the caller. A racing
OFFLOAD_CANCEL (crafted cl_id == nn->s2s_cp_cl_id plus the guessable
so_id) could reach manage_cpntf_state() and free the entry, turning the
caller's subsequent cpn_cnr_stateid read and cp_p_stateid/cp_p_clid
writes into use-after-free. The owning clientid was also only recorded
after publication, so it could not gate an ownership check in that window.
Record cp_p_stateid and cp_p_clid inside nfs4_alloc_init_cpntf_state()
before nfs4_init_cp_state() publishes the entry, and return it with an
extra reference. The caller reads the stateid under that reference and
drops it with nfs4_put_cpntf_state(); on a late error the laundromat
reaps the entry. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: move nfsd_debugfs_init() after nfsd4_init_slabs() in init_nfsd()
nfsd_debugfs_init() runs before nfsd4_init_slabs() in init_nfsd().
If the slab allocation fails, the bare "return retval" bypasses
nfsd_debugfs_exit(), leaving orphan debugfs files with stale fops
pointers into the freed module text.
Move nfsd_debugfs_init() to after the slab init succeeds, so the
early return has no debugfs state to clean up.
Since debugfs is now the more recently initialized of the two, also
update the unwind paths to match reverse-initialization (LIFO) order:
run nfsd_debugfs_exit() before nfsd4_free_slabs() in both the
init_nfsd() error path and exit_nfsd(). The nfsd debugfs files only
reference module-global state and have no dependency on the slab
caches, so that reordering is a cleanup with no functional change. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: close shrinker/GC/fsnotify vs per-net shutdown race in filecache
The shrinker, GC worker, and fsnotify/lease callbacks can unhash an
nfsd_file from the rhashtable and then call
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() to move it to the per-net dispose list.
If nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() runs concurrently, its rhashtable walk
misses the already-unhashed file, and its drain of the per-net dispose
list can run before the file has been queued. The file then sits on
the per-net list with no thread to drain it, leaking both the file and
its associated state.
The GC worker and shrinker already hold nfsd_gc_lock while walking the
LRU, but in the original code they release it before calling
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed(). The fsnotify/lease path
(nfsd_file_close_inode) has no synchronization at all.
Fix this by:
1. Widening nfsd_gc_lock in both nfsd_file_gc() and nfsd_file_lru_scan()
to cover the nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() call.
2. Wrapping nfsd_file_close_inode() in nfsd_gc_lock so that all three
callers of nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() hold the lock.
3. Adding a spin_lock/unlock(nfsd_gc_lock) barrier in
nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() after the purge, so that any
in-progress disposal has fully completed before the per-net list
is drained.
All operations inside the lock are non-sleeping (rhashtable lookups,
atomic bit/refcount ops, list moves, svc_wake_up), so the spinlock is
appropriate. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: reject out-of-range nseconds in NFSv3 SETATTR and create ops
A client can send an NFSv3 SETATTR, CREATE, MKDIR, SYMLINK or MKNOD
carrying an atime or mtime whose nseconds field is out of range. The
value is well-formed on the wire and decodes cleanly into a valid
uint32, but it is not a valid timespec64: tv_nsec must be less than
NSEC_PER_SEC.
Nothing in the setattr path clamps it. notify_change() runs the time
through timestamp_truncate(), which does not reduce tv_nsec below
NSEC_PER_SEC when the filesystem supports nanosecond granularity
(s_time_gran == 1), and the inode atime/mtime setters store it verbatim
(only ctime is normalized, via inode_set_ctime_to_ts()). The
un-normalized value then corrupts on-disk metadata: ext4's
ext4_encode_extra_time() shifts tv_nsec left by EXT4_EPOCH_BITS, which
overflows the 32-bit extra field and clobbers the seconds-epoch bits, so
the stored seconds (and thus the year) are wrong on read-back. XFS with
bigtime mis-stores the timestamp for the same reason.
Validate the client-supplied atime/mtime in the proc handlers and return
NFS3ERR_INVAL before anything is changed. RFC 1813 lists NFS3ERR_INVAL
for SETATTR and describes it as the error for a value the server 'can
not store ... in its own representation'; the client maps it to EINVAL.
Checking in the proc handlers, rather than in nfsd_setattr(), keeps the
rejection in front of object creation. The create operations create the
object before nfsd_create_setattr() runs, so a late failure would leave
the new object behind and turn a non-idempotent request into a namespace
change that reports failure. The check is therefore done up front, for
the create operations before the object is created.
tv_nsec is a long, so the comparison casts it to unsigned long (the same
width) rather than to u32, matching timespec64_valid(). A u32 cast would
truncate on 64-bit; the unsigned long cast also rejects a value that
became negative when an out-of-range u32 wire nseconds was assigned to a
32-bit long.
Only client-supplied times are checked: SET_TO_SERVER_TIME requests
carry no client value. The sattrguard3 ctime is deliberately left alone:
an out-of-range guard simply never matches the object's ctime and yields
NFS3ERR_NOT_SYNC via the existing guardtime comparison, which is the
protocol-correct outcome rather than rejecting the request. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: reject out-of-range useconds in NFSv2 SETATTR/CREATE
The NFSv2 sattr decoder converts the wire useconds to nanoseconds in
svcxdr_decode_sattr():
iap->ia_atime.tv_nsec = tmp2 * NSEC_PER_USEC;
tmp2 is a u32 and NSEC_PER_USEC is 1000, so the product is computed in
unsigned long. On ILP32 that is 32 bits, and an out-of-range useconds
value such as 4294968 wraps to tv_nsec == 704. The corruption therefore
happens during decode, before any proc function can inspect the value,
and a later range check on tv_nsec would see an in-range result and
accept it. Rejecting in the decoder yields an RPC GARBAGE_ARGS reply.
NFSv2 defines no NFSERR_INVAL, so there is no NFS-level status to return
for a malformed time argument, and the check cannot move to the proc
function the way the v3/v4 nsec range checks do.
Guard the raw useconds before the multiplication and reject values
greater than 1000000. useconds == 1000000 is kept: it is the Sun
convention for "set to the current server time", and the in-tree Linux
NFSv2 client emits it in both the atime and the mtime field for a plain
touch / utimes(file, NULL) (see encode_sattr() and
xdr_encode_current_server_time() in fs/nfs/nfs2xdr.c). Rejecting 1000000
would turn that common operation into a hard decode failure for both
SETATTR and CREATE. 1000000 * NSEC_PER_USEC is 10^9, which does not wrap
on ILP32, so the Sun convention value passes through safely. Only
genuinely out-of-range values (> 1000000) are rejected. The atime and
mtime guards are therefore symmetric.
The decoder only applied the Sun convention in the mtime block, which
clears ATTR_ATIME_SET|ATTR_MTIME_SET when mtime useconds == 1000000. If a
client puts 1000000 in the atime field but not in the mtime field, the
atime block stored an out-of-range tv_nsec (10^9) and left ATTR_ATIME_SET
set, so the bogus value reached the filesystem. Apply the convention in
the atime block as well, clearing ATTR_ATIME_SET so the server uses its
current time and ignores the value. Only ATTR_ATIME_SET is cleared there.
The mtime block keeps its existing behavior, where 1000000 means "set
both atime and mtime to now".
[ cel: various tweaks, addenda, and clean-ups ] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release OPEN-decoded posix ACLs via op_release
nfsd4_decode_createhow4() calls nfsd4_decode_fattr4(), which allocates
refcounted struct posix_acl objects via posix_acl_alloc() and stores
them in open->op_pacl and open->op_dpacl. These pointers must be
released once the OPEN compound finishes.
When nfsd4_decode_open_claim4() returns a non-seqid-mutating error,
the dispatcher short-circuits before op_func runs:
nfsd4_proc_compound()
if (op->status && op->opnum == OP_OPEN)
op->status = nfsd4_open_omfg(...)
if (!seqid_mutating_err(ntohl(op->status)))
return op->status; /* nfsd4_open() never runs */
...
opdesc->op_release(&op->u) /* must still release op_pacl/op_dpacl */
Before this change OP_OPEN had no .op_release in nfsd4_ops[], and the
release pair lived inside nfsd4_open() at its out_err: label. On the
short-circuit path nfsd4_open() is never invoked, so both posix_acl
refs leak on every malformed OPEN compound that carries valid POSIX
ACL createhow4 attributes.
Add nfsd4_open_release() and wire it as .op_release for OP_OPEN.
posix_acl_release() is NULL-safe, so the single release site covers
both the normal path and the nfsd4_open_omfg short-circuit. Remove
the matching posix_acl_release() pair from nfsd4_open()'s out_err:
label to avoid double-releasing.
The compound loop has two encoding branches: nfsd4_encode_operation()
for normal ops, and nfsd4_encode_replay() for v4.0 replayed ops.
op_release was only called from nfsd4_encode_operation(), so resources
attached to op->u leak on the replay path.
Move the op_release() call out of nfsd4_encode_operation() and the
replay branch, placing it after the if-else in nfsd4_proc_compound().
This gives a single call site in a fairly obviously-correct place,
covering both the normal encoding and replay paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: revoke copy-notify stateids before dropping their reference
Copy-notify stateids live in the s2s_cp_stateids IDR and on their parent
stid's sc_cp_list, pinned by a single membership reference.
_free_cpntf_state_locked() only unlinks an entry once its refcount reaches
zero, so any revoke path that runs while a concurrent
find_cpntf_state()/manage_cpntf_state() holder has elevated cs_count drops
the reference without unlinking, leaving the entry discoverable with its
membership reference already consumed. A second revoke or a laundromat tick
then frees it while the reader still holds the pointer -- a
KASAN-detectable use-after-free at the reader's nfs4_put_cpntf_state().
This affected all three revoke paths:
- The parent-stid drain (nfs4_free_cpntf_statelist()) repeatedly called
_free_cpntf_state_locked() on the first list entry; a holder that had
bumped cs_count made it return early, so the next iteration
re-decremented and burned the holder's reference.
- OFFLOAD_CANCEL (manage_cpntf_state()) and laundromat expiry likewise
used _free_cpntf_state_locked() and could drop 2->1 without unlinking.
Add revoke_cpntf_state_locked(), which unhashes the entry from the IDR and
sc_cp_list first (deferring the final free to any holder), and use it from
all three revoke paths. The drain now walks with list_for_each_entry_safe()
and revokes each entry unconditionally, so it terminates in one pass per
entry regardless of cs_count. The unhash is gated on
!list_empty(&cps->cp_list); the idr_remove() gate matters because
idr_alloc_cyclic() may have recycled the so_id by then. Keep
_free_cpntf_state_locked() for the reference-holder put path only, where a
concurrent revoke may already have unlinked the entry (its list_del_init()
then a no-op). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent lock owner use-after-free during client teardown
__destroy_client() releases a client's open owners, but a lock owner
whose only reference is a blocked lock (nbl) stays on
cl_ownerstr_hashtbl. client_has_state() does not count a bare owner,
so DESTROY_CLIENTID can reach __destroy_client() with such owners
present.
__destroy_client() then walks the table, calling remove_blocked_locks()
on each owner without a reference. Freeing a blocked lock drops the
owner reference held via flc_owner. The per-net laundromat reaps
blocked locks from nn->blocked_locks_lru independently of client state.
The two paths share blocked_locks_lock only for the list splice, not
the owner's lifetime. The laundromat therefore frees the owner as
__destroy_client() dereferences it, a NULL dereference in
remove_blocked_locks().
nfsd4_release_lockowner() holds a reference across the same call;
__destroy_client() does not. Hold cl_lock across the walk, taking a
reference and unhashing each owner, then drop it before
remove_blocked_locks() and nfs4_put_stateowner(), which take
blocked_locks_lock and cl_lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent post-shutdown use-after-free in unlock_filesystem
Writing a filesystem path to /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_filesystem runs
nfsd4_cancel_copy_by_sb() before nfsd_mutex is held and before the
handler confirms that nn->nfsd_serv is set. Once nfsd has shut down,
nfs4_state_destroy_net() has freed nn->conf_id_hashtbl but left the
pointer intact, so the cancel helper iterates freed slab memory as an
array of struct list_head and then dereferences a bogus nfs4_client
when it takes clp->async_lock. A local administrator holding
CAP_SYS_ADMIN can reach this use-after-free by stopping the server and
then writing to unlock_filesystem; KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free
read in nfsd4_cancel_copy_by_sb().
nfsd4_revoke_states() walks the same state tables and for that reason
already runs only under nfsd_mutex with nn->nfsd_serv confirmed
present. Move the async COPY cancel into that protected section so
every NFSv4 state-table walker on this path observes a running server.
Async copies exist only while the server runs, so gating the cancel on
nn->nfsd_serv loses nothing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during admin state revocation
A stateid holds only a bare pointer to its nfs4_client; a stateid
reference does not pin it. The client survives only because
__destroy_client() drains its stateids before free_client() runs.
nfsd4_revoke_states() drops nn->client_lock across revoke_one_stid(),
which dereferences the client to revoke a stateid and read
clp->cl_minorversion. A teardown racing the dropped lock can free
the client first.
Pinning cl_rpc_users under client_lock blocks the DESTROY_CLIENTID and
EXCHANGE_ID teardown, which refuses while cl_rpc_users is non-zero.
force_expire_client() ignores it: once its wait for cl_rpc_users to
reach zero has passed, a later pin goes unnoticed.
Under client_lock, skip a client whose cl_time is already zero --
force_expire_client() clears it there before waiting -- otherwise pin
cl_rpc_users before dropping the lock. The walk then either sees the
expiry and skips, or pins in time for that wait to cover the revoke. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during delegation revoke
A delegation stateid holds only a bare pointer to its owning
nfs4_client and does not keep it alive. The client survives its
stateids only because __destroy_client() drains cl_delegations and
cl_revoked before free_client() runs.
nfs4_laundromat() breaks that invariant: it unhashes an
expired delegation from cl_delegations, drops deleg_lock, then
revoke_delegation() relinks it onto cl_revoked under cl_lock. In that
window the delegation is on neither list, so client_has_state() can
report no remaining state.
Every teardown path first requires cl_rpc_users to be zero, but
the laundromat holds no such reference. A client whose recalled
delegation has just timed out can therefore reach free_client()
while revoke_delegation() is still about to dereference cl_lock,
a use-after-free.
Pin the client with cl_rpc_users across the revoke so teardown blocks
until it completes, then reap the delegation from cl_revoked. A client
already expiring reaps its own, so skip it and leave the delegation on
del_recall_lru. |
