Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: call cache_put if xdr_reserve_space returns NULL
If not enough buffer space available, but idmap_lookup has triggered
lookup_fn which calls cache_get and returns successfully. Then we
missed to call cache_put here which pairs with cache_get.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Network File System Daemon (nfsd) component. This vulnerability occurs when the system attempts to allocate buffer space but fails, yet a related lookup operation succeeds. This leads to a resource leak where a cache entry is acquired but not properly released. A local attacker could exploit this issue to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by exhausting system resources.
Меры по смягчению последствий
If NFS server functionality is not required, disable the nfs-server service to prevent exploitation.
If the NFS server is necessary, restrict access to trusted clients using firewall rules. Restarting the nfs-server service may be required for changes to take effect.
