In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: remove flawed WARN_ON_ONCE from nfsd_mode_check
The header for commit e75b23f9e323 ("nfsd: check d_can_lookup in
fh_verify of directories") details the assumption that justified
adding the WARN_ON_ONCE to nfsd_mode_check(), that assumption is
invalid (in the case of NFS reexport).
When NFSD exports an NFS filesystem it is very possible for
nfsd_mode_check() to encounter a @dentry that doesn't have
i_op->lookup (see nfs_fhget()'s NFS_ATTR_FATTR_MOUNTPOINT and
NFS_ATTR_FATTR_V4_REFERRAL handling, and d_flags_for_inode()).
So remove nfsd_mode_check()'s WARN_ON_ONCE(). The nfserr_notdir
return on that branch must stay. It guards the subsequent
lookup_one_unlocked() -> __lookup_slow() path, which calls
inode->i_op->lookup() with no NULL check, so returning nfserr_notdir
is what keeps a client LOOKUP into such a @dentry from dereferencing
a NULL method pointer.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Network File System Daemon (NFSD). An invalid assumption in the nfsd_mode_check() function regarding directory lookup capabilities during NFS reexport could lead to a null pointer dereference. A remote attacker could exploit this by performing a LOOKUP operation on a specially crafted NFS reexport, potentially causing a system crash and resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
