In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix use-after-free due to delegation race
A delegation break could arrive as soon as we've called vfs_setlease. A
delegation break runs a callback which immediately (in
nfsd4_cb_recall_prepare) adds the delegation to del_recall_lru. If we
then exit nfs4_set_delegation without hashing the delegation, it will be
freed as soon as the callback is done with it, without ever being
removed from del_recall_lru.
Symptoms show up later as use-after-free or list corruption warnings,
usually in the laundromat thread.
I suspect aba2072f4523 "nfsd: grant read delegations to clients holding
writes" made this bug easier to hit, but I looked as far back as v3.0
and it looks to me it already had the same problem. So I'm not sure
where the bug was introduced; it may have been there from the beginning.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Network File System daemon (nfsd). A race condition during delegation handling allows a delegation break callback to be processed before the delegation is properly registered and tracked. This causes the delegation memory structure to be freed while still referenced on the recall list, resulting in a use-after-free flaw. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause memory corruption, potentially leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) or arbitrary code execution.
Отчет
This flaw is rated as Moderate severity for Red Hat Enterprise Linux because exploitation requires winning a timing-dependent race condition on hosts explicitly deployed as NFS file servers, limiting broader exposure. By default, Red Hat Enterprise Linux installations do not enable or run the kernel NFS server daemon. Although memory corruption resulting in a kernel crash or system instability is possible, triggering the condition depends on concurrent delegation break operations that are difficult to induce reliably.
