CVE-2026-89758 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/mempolicy: skip non-present PMDs when queueing folios Patch series "mm: handle device-private PMDs in walk callbacks", v3. Since commit 368076f52ebe ("mm/huge_memory: add device-private THP support to PMD operations") a PMD may hold a device-private swap entry whenever an HMM-based GPU driver migrates an anonymous THP folio to device memory via migrate_vma_pages(). pmd_trans_huge_lock() succeeds for such PMDs (pmd_is_huge() returns true for any non-present, non-none huge PMD), so several MM walk callbacks that used to assume present THP or migration entry are now reachable with a device-private PMD. The results range from a VM_BUG_ON() firing on debug kernels, to an oops on a bogus vmemmap dereference, to silently isolating an unrelated live folio from LRU in the aliasing case. This patch (of 3): queue_folios_pmd() is called under pmd_trans_huge_lock(), whose pmd_is_huge() check returns true for any non-present, non-none PMD softleaf. Passing such a PMD to pmd_folio() treats the softleaf encoding as a hardware PFN and can return a bogus folio pointer. Mirror queue_folios_pte_range(): handle non-present entries before looking up a folio. Keep migration entries counted as failures, but skip other non-present PMDs such as device-private entries. Potential trigger: an HMM-based GPU driver migrates an anonymous THP folio to device memory via migrate_vma_pages(), leaving a device-private PMD. Userspace then calls mbind(), migrate_pages() or set_mempolicy_home_node() on that range.
CVE-2026-89754 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/pagewalk: fix stale walk->action escaping walk_pmd_range() If ->pmd_entry() sets walk->action = ACTION_AGAIN, the pmd_none() check is retried. The PMD entry may be cleared at the point of retry. In this case, if walk->ops->install_pte is not specified, the code continues to the next PMD entry in the range without resetting walk->action to ACTION_SUBTREE. This leaves walk->action erroneously set to ACTION_AGAIN, which is incorrect. This was incorrect but not problematic up until commit 3b89863c3fa4 ("mm/pagewalk: fix race between concurrent split and refault") which updated walk_pud_range() to check for walk->action == ACTION_AGAIN upon walk_pmd_range()'s return, causing the PUD walk to be retried. In this case this results in duplicate walk callbacks being invoked, which is erroneous and will break any caller that is not idempotent with respect to this (and waste time for those which are). The result is an out-of-bounds write, triggered by a local fuzzer: [ 2.272695] ================================================================== [ 2.273471] BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in __mincore_unmapped_range+0x14f/0x190 [ 2.274302] Write of size 1 at addr ffff888008d9b000 by task poc/106 [ 2.274966] [ 2.275154] CPU: 0 UID: 1000 PID: 106 Comm: poc Not tainted 7.2.0-rc6-00429-ga7c7074b58d2 #55 PREEMPT(lazy) [ 2.275159] Hardware name: QEMU Ubuntu 24.04 PC v2 (i440FX + PIIX, arch_caps fix, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014 [ 2.275164] Call Trace: [ 2.275170] <TASK> [ 2.275172] dump_stack_lvl+0x53/0x70 [ 2.275200] print_report+0xd0/0x630 [ 2.275210] ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 [ 2.275219] ? irqentry_exit+0xd2/0x670 [ 2.275224] ? irqentry_exit+0xd2/0x670 [ 2.275226] ? __virt_addr_valid+0xef/0x1a0 [ 2.275239] ? __mincore_unmapped_range+0x14f/0x190 [ 2.275242] kasan_report+0xce/0x100 [ 2.275245] ? __mincore_unmapped_range+0x14f/0x190 [ 2.275248] __mincore_unmapped_range+0x14f/0x190 [ 2.275252] mincore_unmapped_range+0x45/0x70 [ 2.275254] walk_pgd_range+0xafc/0xfc0 [ 2.275261] ? __pfx_walk_pgd_range+0x10/0x10 [ 2.275264] ? __update_load_avg_se+0x3d1/0x670 [ 2.275275] __walk_page_range+0xc0/0x310 [ 2.275278] ? __pfx_find_vma+0x10/0x10 [ 2.275281] ? finish_task_switch.isra.0+0x16d/0x4f0 [ 2.275290] walk_page_range_mm_unsafe+0x26f/0x3a0 [ 2.275293] ? __pfx_mtree_load+0x10/0x10 [ 2.275298] ? __pfx_walk_page_range_mm_unsafe+0x10/0x10 [ 2.275302] ? __free_frozen_pages+0x54d/0x7e0 [ 2.275308] __do_sys_mincore+0x132/0x380 [ 2.275311] do_syscall_64+0xf9/0x540 [ 2.275316] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f [ 2.275322] RIP: 0033:0x422ccd [ 2.275326] Code: b3 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 66 90 f3 0f 1e fa 48 89 f8 48 89 f7 48 89 d6 48 89 ca 4d 89 c2 4d 89 c8 4c 8b 4c 24 08 0f 05 <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 c7 c1 b8 ff ff ff f7 d8 64 89 01 48 [ 2.275329] RSP: 002b:00007fffffffec18 EFLAGS: 00000287 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000001b [ 2.275337] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000000066 RCX: 0000000000422ccd [ 2.275339] RDX: 00000000004d0940 RSI: 0000000001000000 RDI: 00007ffff4000000 [ 2.275340] RBP: 00000000004d0940 R08: 0000000000000100 R09: 0000000000000100 [ 2.275342] R10: 0000000000000100 R11: 0000000000000287 R12: 20c49ba5e353f7cf [ 2.275343] R13: 00000000004990d3 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000001 [ 2.275346] </TASK> [ 2.275347] [ 2.296904] The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888008d9b000 [ 2.296904] which belongs to the cache sigqueue of size 80 [ 2.298151] The buggy address is located 0 bytes inside of [ 2.298151] allocated 80-byte region [ffff888008d9b000, ffff888008d9b050) [ 2.299408] [ 2.299601] The buggy address belongs to the physical page: [ 2.300191] page: refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x8d9b ---truncated---
CVE-2026-89748 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a failed replacement leaves it at -1. The current !retry test reverses both outcomes. It returns an error after a successful final replacement, leaving the link update complete but the reader bookkeeping unfinished. After a failed final replacement, it falls through and updates the head and reader pointers as though the replacement succeeded, which can corrupt the ring. Treat only a negative counter as exhaustion and return the documented -EBUSY error.
CVE-2026-89747 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: Fix use-after-free in trace_pipe read on sub-buffer order change Writing to buffer_subbuf_size_kb calls ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set(), which frees every sub-buffer of the ring buffer, including the reader page, and replaces them with newly allocated ones. Readers of trace_pipe hold pointers into those pages. ring_buffer_peek() looks up an event under cpu_buffer->reader_lock but returns the event pointer after dropping the lock, and peek_next_entry() then calls ring_buffer_event_length() and ring_buffer_event_data() on it. If the sub-buffer order is changed in that window, the reader dereferences freed memory: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ring_buffer_peek+0x3e0/0x430 Read of size 1 at addr ffff88802a4cf010 by task syz-executor989/6002 Freed by: free_buffer_page kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:398 [inline] ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set+0x1325/0x18e0 kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:7444 buffer_subbuf_size_write+0x182/0x280 kernel/trace/trace.c:8221 Take trace_access_lock(RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS) around the order change. This is the lock trace_pipe readers already hold across their entire peek-and-print loop, so the swap can no longer race with a reader that is dereferencing a peeked event.
CVE-2026-89743 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.7 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: nsm: bound the device-reported response length nsm_sendrecv_msg_locked() stores the virtqueue used-ring length reported by the NSM device into msg->resp.len without bounding it to the response buffer. A malicious or buggy backend can report a length larger than the response buffer; parse_resp_raw() then copies that many bytes out of the fixed buffer to user space, disclosing adjacent kernel heap (an out-of-bounds read). The request path already floors its length in fill_req_raw(); the response path lacks the symmetric check. Clamp the stored length to the size of the response buffer. Well-behaved devices report no more than the posted buffer size, so conforming traffic is unaffected.
CVE-2026-89703 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 9.8 Critical
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: set SC_STATUS_FREED in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid for delegations nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid() handles FREE_STATEID for admin-revoked delegations but does not set SC_STATUS_FREED before releasing cl_lock. revoke_delegation() uses this flag to detect whether FREE_STATEID has already processed the delegation -- without it, the freed delegation is added to cl_revoked via list_add(), producing a use-after-free when cl_revoked is later traversed in __destroy_client(). The SC_STATUS_REVOKED path in nfsd4_free_stateid() (line 7983) already sets SC_STATUS_FREED correctly. Apply the same pattern to the SC_STATUS_ADMIN_REVOKED path in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid().
CVE-2026-89695 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.5 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: cap decoded POSIX ACL count to bound sort cost nfsd4_decode_posixacl() reads a u32 entry count off the wire and passes it straight to posix_acl_alloc() and sort_pacl_range(). The latter is an O(n^2) bubble sort, so a client-chosen count drives unbounded CPU in the server's compound processing path. nfsd4_decode_posixacl() xdr_stream_decode_u32(&count) /* uncapped u32 */ posix_acl_alloc(count, GFP_KERNEL) sort_pacl_range(*acl, 0, count - 1) /* O(n^2) bubble sort */ The encoder side in the same file already rejects ACLs whose a_count exceeds NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES, but the decoder introduced in commit 5fc51dfc2eb1 ("NFSD: Add support for XDR decoding POSIX draft ACLs") omitted the symmetric check. Fix by rejecting a wire count greater than NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES with nfserr_inval, before any allocation, so the sort is bounded by NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES^2 comparisons. While we're in here, also fix the nfserr_resource return if posix_acl_alloc() fails. That's not a legal error code for v4.1+. Change it to return nfserr_jukebox as that's more appropriate for memory allocation failures.
CVE-2026-89692 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.5 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: clear CALLBACK_RUNNING on failed delegation recall queue nfsd_break_one_deleg() sets NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING via test_and_set_bit at entry to serialize recall work, then calls nfsd4_run_cb() to queue the recall. When the queue attempt fails the refcount bump is undone, but the RUNNING bit is left set. The only site that clears the bit is nfsd41_destroy_cb() (fs/nfsd/nfs4callback.c), which runs from the workqueue and is therefore unreachable when nothing was queued. The bit becomes a permanent latch on dp->dl_recall.cb_flags: every subsequent break_lease() on the same delegation hits the early-return guard in nfsd_break_one_deleg() and silently skips the recall, so the delegation is never broken and the conflicting open or lock stalls. Fix by clearing NFSD4_CALLBACK_RUNNING on the !queued branch alongside the refcount_dec.
CVE-2026-89691 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.1 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: clear opcnt on compound arg release to prevent OOB read nfsd4_release_compoundargs() resets args->ops to the inline iops[8] array when the dynamically-allocated ops buffer is freed, but leaves args->opcnt at its original value (which can be up to 200 for NFSv4.1+ compounds). If rq_status_counter is stuck at an odd value (which can happen when nfsd_dispatch() hits an error path after setting it odd), the RPC status dumpit handler reads min(opcnt, 16) entries from args->ops[]. Since iops only has 8 elements and is the last field in struct nfsd4_compoundargs, reading indices 8-15 accesses adjacent slab memory and leaks it to userspace via netlink. Zero opcnt unconditionally in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() so stale compound metadata is never exposed through the status interface. [ cel: Remove the kvfree_rcu_mightsleep() sleep from the exposure window ]
CVE-2026-89690 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: defer vfree of compound ops to fix rpc_status UAF The rpc_status netlink dumpit walks every in-flight svc_rqst under rcu_read_lock and, for NFSv4 requests, reads opnums out of args->ops[]. But args->ops is a separate vmalloc buffer freed synchronously by vfree() in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() at the end of every compound. The dumpit's rcu_read_lock pins the svc_rqst struct itself (freed via kfree_rcu), but nothing defers the vfree of the ops buffer across the RCU grace period. A concurrent compound completion can therefore free the buffer while the dumpit is reading it — a use-after-free on vmalloc memory. The trailing seqcount recheck (smp_load_acquire of rq_status_counter) cannot undo a load that already retired against freed memory. Fix by replacing vfree(args->ops) with kvfree_rcu_mightsleep(), which defers the free until after an RCU grace period. This makes the existing rcu_read_lock in the dumpit sufficient to protect the read. The tradeoff is that completed compound ops buffers (up to 200 * sizeof(struct nfsd4_op)) persist in memory slightly longer, across one grace period, before being reclaimed.
CVE-2026-89689 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 9.8 Critical
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: don't free session slots that are still in use nfsd4_sequence() can free the very slot it is currently processing. When the session shrinker has reduced se_target_maxslots below se_fchannel.maxreqs, the shrink path checks three conditions before calling free_session_slots(): 1. se_target_maxslots < maxreqs (shrink was advertised) 2. slot->sl_generation == se_slot_gen (slot is up-to-date) 3. seq->maxslots <= se_target_maxslots (client acknowledges) However, seq->slotid is never checked against se_target_maxslots. A client using a slot in the range [se_target_maxslots, maxreqs) can satisfy all three conditions: its slot has the current generation (set by a prior SEQUENCE), and it sends sa_highest_slotid <= se_target_maxslots to acknowledge the reduction. free_session_slots() then kfrees every slot at index >= se_target_maxslots, including the caller's own slot. The function continues to write sl_seqid, sl_flags, sl_generation, and stores the dangling pointer in cstate->slot. Later, nfsd4_store_cache_entry() copies up to maxresp_cached bytes of the compound reply into the freed sl_data[] array, corrupting whatever slab object now occupies that address. Additionally, a concurrent thread processing SEQUENCE on a different high-numbered slot can have its slot freed out from under it. NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE is set under nn->client_lock before the lock is released, so any concurrent thread past SEQUENCE will have its slot marked. However, free_session_slots() does not check NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE before freeing. Fix both problems by: 1. Checking that the current request's slotid is below the shrink boundary. 2. Scanning slots in the to-be-freed range for NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE and deferring the shrink if any are active.
CVE-2026-89688 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 9.8 Critical
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: drop the stateid, not the stateowner, on seqid_op replay retry In nfs4_preprocess_seqid_op() the stateid is obtained from nfsd4_lookup_stateid(), which holds a reference on the nfs4_stid (sc_count) but takes no reference on the stateowner. openlockstateid() merely casts that stid and likewise takes no reference. When nfsd4_cstate_assign_replay() returns -EAGAIN (the replay owner is being torn down, RP_UNHASHED) it has not taken a stateowner reference on that path. The error handling nevertheless called nfs4_put_stateowner(stp->st_stateowner), dropping an so_count reference the function never acquired -- risking a stateowner refcount underflow and use-after-free -- while leaking the sc_count reference held on the stid. The leaked stid reference can also stall a concurrent nfsd4_close_open_stateid() waiting for sc_count to drop. Drop the reference actually held -- the stid -- before retrying. The stateowner stays alive through the reference held by the stid. This mirrors the open path in nfsd4_process_open1(), where the put balances a reference that path explicitly holds on the stateowner.
CVE-2026-89687 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.5 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: ensure nfsd_file_do_acquire() does not use a non-opened file ->atomic_open is permitted to return success without actually opening the file. It indicates this by calling finish_no_open(). This means dentry_create() can return a file which hasn't been opened. This is extremely unlikely as ->atomic_open handlers typically use finish_no_open() only for already existing files, and dentry_create() isn't called in that case, and the parent being locked should prevent races. However out of an abundance of caution it seems wise to teach nfsd to only use the file returned by dentry_create() if FMODE_OPENED is set, indicating that it has in fact been opened.
CVE-2026-89681 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 9.8 Critical
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: fix layout fence worker double-reference race The workqueue core clears WORK_STRUCT_PENDING before the callback is invoked, so delayed_work_pending() in lm_breaker_timedout() can return false while the fence worker is already running. This lets the breaker take a duplicate sc_count reference and schedule a new worker that coalesces with the in-progress one. The extra reference is never put, leaking the layout stateid. Replace the racy delayed_work_pending() check with an ls_fence_inflight boolean set atomically with refcount_inc_not_zero() under ls_lock, and cleared under ls_lock before the final nfs4_put_stid() on the dispose path; the retry path intentionally retains it. Remove the self-rearm mod_delayed_work() at the top of the worker.
CVE-2026-89679 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.5 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: fix null dereference in nfsd4_setattr for deleg timestamp attrs When a SETATTR request includes FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS or FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_MODIFY in the attribute bitmap, nfsd4_setattr() sets deleg_attrs=true and calls nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() to validate the stateid. If the client supplies the NFSv4 "one stateid" (all-0xFF bytes), check_special_stateids() returns nfs_ok without populating the output nfs4_stid pointer, because the special-stateid path in nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() jumps to done: with s==NULL, and the "if (s)" block that would set *cstid is skipped. The local variable `st` remains NULL. Back in nfsd4_setattr(), the if (deleg_attrs) block then unconditionally dereferences st->sc_type (at offset 4 from NULL), causing a kernel oops. This is remotely triggerable by any NFSv4 client: send COMPOUND [PUTROOTFH, SETATTR(ONE_STATEID, {bmval2=FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS, ...})]. No authentication, delegation, or prior state is required. Fix by adding a NULL check before the dereference. A special stateid is not a delegation stateid, so the existing nfserr_bad_stateid return value is already correct; we only need to guard the pointer dereference itself.
CVE-2026-89678 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.5 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: fix partial-write detection in nfsd_direct_write nfsd_direct_write() walks a list of write segments and, after each vfs_iocb_iter_write(), tries to detect a short write so the loop can stop before placing the next segment at a wrong file offset: host_err = vfs_iocb_iter_write(file, kiocb, &segments[i].iter); if (host_err < 0) return host_err; *cnt += host_err; if (host_err < segments[i].iter.count) break; /* partial write */ vfs_iocb_iter_write() runs the iter through ->write_iter(), which advances the iter by the number of bytes written. By the time the check runs, segments[i].iter.count is the residual, not the original request length: before write_iter: iter.count == original_len after write_iter: iter.count == original_len - host_err The condition then reduces to host_err < original_len - host_err, so the break fires only when less than half of the segment was written. Any short write completing between 50% and 99% of the segment slips through; the loop advances to the next segment with kiocb->ki_pos only bumped by the short amount, writing the next segment's payload at the wrong offset and over-reporting *cnt to the NFS client. Snapshot the segment's byte count before the write and compare host_err against that snapshot so any short write breaks the loop.
CVE-2026-89677 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 9.8 Critical
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: fix possible fh_compose of wrong dentry in nfsd4_create_file() dentry_create() can hypothetically provide a different dentry than the one passed in. This could happen, for example, if the exported filesystem is NFS, and the server returned to OPEN a filehandle which matched a directory that was already in the dcache. Clearly this would not be expected! If this were to happen the dentry (child) that was already stored in resfhp could be freed and later dereferenced. We shouldn't call fh_compose() until we are certain that we have the final dentry, so this patch moved the fh_compose() call to two places: one for the case where the target already exists, and one after dentry_create() where it was created.
CVE-2026-89670 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: hold rcu across localio cmpxchg retry nfsd_file objects are freed via call_rcu (filecache.c:296), and nfsd_file_slab is created without SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU (KMEM_CACHE(nfsd_file, 0) at filecache.c:789), so the slab page backing a freed nfsd_file becomes freely reclaimable once the RCU grace period elapses. The again: retry block in nfsd_open_local_fh() loads a pointer with cmpxchg and then calls nfsd_file_get(new) (which is refcount_inc_not_zero) without holding rcu_read_lock. The sole caller nfs_open_local_fh() drops rcu_read_lock before invoking this helper, so no outer reader-side critical section covers the load. CPU 0 (nfsd_open_local_fh) CPU 1 (nfsd_file_put_local) ----- ----- new = cmpxchg(pnf, NULL, ...) nf = xchg(pnf, NULL) nfsd_file_put(nf) last ref -> call_rcu() /* grace period elapses; slab page recycled */ nfsd_file_get(new) refcount_inc_not_zero(&new->nf_ref) /* operates on recycled memory */ A non-zero word at the nf_ref offset of the recycled object makes the refcount bump appear to succeed, and the caller then dereferences new->nf_net and new->nf_file out of freed memory. Fix by taking rcu_read_lock() immediately before the cmpxchg and releasing it on all three exits of the if (new) block: the goto-again retry, the lost-race cleanup path, and the install-succeeded path. nfsd_file_put() and nfsd_net_put() stay outside the RCU section so they remain free to block.
CVE-2026-89668 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: move nfsd_debugfs_init() after nfsd4_init_slabs() in init_nfsd() nfsd_debugfs_init() runs before nfsd4_init_slabs() in init_nfsd(). If the slab allocation fails, the bare "return retval" bypasses nfsd_debugfs_exit(), leaving orphan debugfs files with stale fops pointers into the freed module text. Move nfsd_debugfs_init() to after the slab init succeeds, so the early return has no debugfs state to clean up. Since debugfs is now the more recently initialized of the two, also update the unwind paths to match reverse-initialization (LIFO) order: run nfsd_debugfs_exit() before nfsd4_free_slabs() in both the init_nfsd() error path and exit_nfsd(). The nfsd debugfs files only reference module-global state and have no dependency on the slab caches, so that reordering is a cleanup with no functional change.
CVE-2026-89664 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-09-13 7.5 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: release OPEN-decoded posix ACLs via op_release nfsd4_decode_createhow4() calls nfsd4_decode_fattr4(), which allocates refcounted struct posix_acl objects via posix_acl_alloc() and stores them in open->op_pacl and open->op_dpacl. These pointers must be released once the OPEN compound finishes. When nfsd4_decode_open_claim4() returns a non-seqid-mutating error, the dispatcher short-circuits before op_func runs: nfsd4_proc_compound() if (op->status && op->opnum == OP_OPEN) op->status = nfsd4_open_omfg(...) if (!seqid_mutating_err(ntohl(op->status))) return op->status; /* nfsd4_open() never runs */ ... opdesc->op_release(&op->u) /* must still release op_pacl/op_dpacl */ Before this change OP_OPEN had no .op_release in nfsd4_ops[], and the release pair lived inside nfsd4_open() at its out_err: label. On the short-circuit path nfsd4_open() is never invoked, so both posix_acl refs leak on every malformed OPEN compound that carries valid POSIX ACL createhow4 attributes. Add nfsd4_open_release() and wire it as .op_release for OP_OPEN. posix_acl_release() is NULL-safe, so the single release site covers both the normal path and the nfsd4_open_omfg short-circuit. Remove the matching posix_acl_release() pair from nfsd4_open()'s out_err: label to avoid double-releasing. The compound loop has two encoding branches: nfsd4_encode_operation() for normal ops, and nfsd4_encode_replay() for v4.0 replayed ops. op_release was only called from nfsd4_encode_operation(), so resources attached to op->u leak on the replay path. Move the op_release() call out of nfsd4_encode_operation() and the replay branch, placing it after the if-else in nfsd4_proc_compound(). This gives a single call site in a fairly obviously-correct place, covering both the normal encoding and replay paths.
