In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pNFS: Fix use-after-free in pnfs_update_layout()
When hitting the NFS_LAYOUT_RETURN branch in pnfs_update_layout(),
the code calls pnfs_prepare_to_retry_layoutget(lo). If it succeeds,
pnfs_put_layout_hdr(lo) is called before trace_pnfs_update_layout(),
which still references 'lo'. This results in a use-after-free when the
tracepoint accesses lo's fields.
Fix this by moving the tracepoint call before pnfs_put_layout_hdr(lo).
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's parallel Network File System (pNFS) component. An issue in the pnfs_update_layout() function causes a use-after-free vulnerability due to incorrect ordering of memory management operations. This flaw can be triggered when the system attempts to update a pNFS layout, potentially leading to system instability, crashes, or a denial of service. In some scenarios, this type of memory corruption could be exploited by a local attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution.
