Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: ensure that nfsd4_fattr_args.context is zeroed out
If nfsd4_encode_fattr4 ends up doing a "goto out" before we get to
checking for the security label, then args.context will be set to
uninitialized junk on the stack, which we'll then try to free.
Initialize it early.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's nfsd component. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit a vulnerability where uninitialized stack data is improperly freed. This issue can lead to a system crash, resulting in a denial of service.
Меры по смягчению последствий
If the NFS server functionality is not required, disable the nfs-server service to mitigate this vulnerability. This can be achieved by running the following commands:
Disabling the nfs-server service will prevent NFS clients from accessing shared directories on the system and may impact services relying on NFS. A system reboot may be required for the changes to take full effect.
