In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd: fix NULL dereference on lockowner allocation failure
nlmclnt_locks_init_private() installs NLM file lock operations even when
nlmclnt_find_lockowner() fails to allocate a lockowner. nlmclnt_proc()
then returns -ENOMEM, but the VFS still tears down the partially
initialized file_lock and calls locks_release_private().
That invokes nlmclnt_locks_release_private(), which dereferences
fl->fl_u.nfs_fl.owner and crashes because the owner was never installed.
Clear fl_ops before attempting to initialize the NLM private state, and
install the NLM lock operations only after a lockowner has been allocated
successfully.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's lockd component. This vulnerability occurs when the Network Lock Manager (NLM) client attempts to initialize file lock operations without successfully allocating a lockowner. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference during the release of the file lock, resulting in a system crash. An attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service.
