In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release svc_expkey/svc_export with rcu_work
The last reference for cache_head can be reduced to zero in c_show
and e_show(using rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock). Consequently,
svc_export_put and expkey_put will be invoked, leading to two
issues:
- The
svc_export_putwill directly free ex_uuid. However,e_show/c_showwill accessex_uuidaftercache_put, which can trigger a use-after-free issue, shown below. ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in svc_export_show+0x362/0x430 [nfsd] Read of size 1 at addr ff11000010fdc120 by task cat/870 CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 870 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.12.0-rc3+ #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014 Call Trace:

2. We cannot sleep while using rcu_read_lock/rcu_read_unlock.
However, svc_export_put/expkey_put will call path_put, which
subsequently triggers a sleeping operation due to the following
dput.

Fix these issues by using rcu_work to help release
svc_expkey/svc_export. This approach allows for an asynchronous
context to invoke path_put and also facilitates the freeing of
uuid/exp/key after an RCU grace period.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Network File System daemon (nfsd). A local user can trigger a use-after-free condition when export cache entries are prematurely released during read operations. This issue may lead to memory corruption, potentially causing a system crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue on systems that do not require NFS server capabilities, prevent the nfsd kernel module from loading by adding a configuration file to /etc/modprobe.d/:
echo "install nfsd /bin/true" > /etc/modprobe.d/nfsd.conf
If the NFS server service is currently running, stop and disable it:
systemctl stop nfs-server
systemctl disable nfs-server
If the nfsd module is already loaded in memory, attempt to unload it or restart the system:
modprobe -r nfsd
Warning: Blacklisting nfsd disables NFS export functionality on the host, though NFS client operations remain unaffected. Unloading the module or restarting the system will disrupt active NFS exports and existing client sessions.
