In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: close shrinker/GC/fsnotify vs per-net shutdown race in filecache The shrinker, GC worker, and fsnotify/lease callbacks can unhash an nfsd_file from the rhashtable and then call nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() to move it to the per-net dispose list. If nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() runs concurrently, its rhashtable walk misses the already-unhashed file, and its drain of the per-net dispose list can run before the file has been queued. The file then sits on the per-net list with no thread to drain it, leaking both the file and its associated state. The GC worker and shrinker already hold nfsd_gc_lock while walking the LRU, but in the original code they release it before calling nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed(). The fsnotify/lease path (nfsd_file_close_inode) has no synchronization at all. Fix this by:
- Widening nfsd_gc_lock in both nfsd_file_gc() and nfsd_file_lru_scan() to cover the nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() call.
- Wrapping nfsd_file_close_inode() in nfsd_gc_lock so that all three callers of nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() hold the lock.
- Adding a spin_lock/unlock(nfsd_gc_lock) barrier in
nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() after the purge, so that any
in-progress disposal has fully completed before the per-net list
is drained.
All operations inside the lock are non-sleeping (rhashtable lookups,
atomic bit/refcount ops, list moves, svc_wake_up), so the spinlock is
appropriate.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Network File System Daemon (nfsd) file caching mechanism. A race condition can occur during concurrent shutdown operations and file disposal, where a file might be unhashed and moved to a dispose list, but the shutdown process misses it. This can lead to a memory leak, as the file and its associated state are not properly released, potentially resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
