Otherwise, the\nxs_tcp_set_socket_timeouts() may be triggered in xs_tcp_send_request()\nto dereference the transport->sock that has been set to NULL."}],"metrics":[{"cvssV3_1":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","baseScore":7.5,"baseSeverity":"HIGH"},"scenarios":[{"lang":"en","value":"AV:N - Both halves of the trigger are driven by the remote NFS server over the network — it supplies the FSINFO/lease_time that sets XPRT_SOCK_UPD_TIMEOUT via nfs4_set_lease_period(), and it decides when to close or RST the TCP connection that runs xs_reset_transport(). An on-path attacker injecting RSTs into a long-lived NFSv4 connection can supply the reset half.\nAC:L - On 5.4.x/5.10.x xs_tcp_send_request() has no transport->inet guard and xprt_sock_sendmsg() explicitly tolerates a NULL sock, so a stale flag plus one send on a torn-down transport is a deterministic oops; on 6.x the attacker controls both sides of the narrow window (callback traffic forces a send, RST forces the concurrent reset) and can retry on every reconnect.\nPR:N - The victim is the NFS client; a server does not authenticate to its clients, and the attacker needs no credentials or account on the target host — only the ability to answer RPCs on an existing mount or inject into its TCP connection.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed at exploitation time — an already-mounted NFSv4 share is a standing deployment condition, and the server drives the FSINFO refresh, callback traffic and connection reset on its own schedule.\nS:U - The NULL dereference occurs in the sunrpc transport code within the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:N - transport->sock is exactly NULL and is dereferenced at a small fixed offset below mmap_min_addr; the fault aborts before any data is read, so nothing is disclosed.\nI:N - The access faults on an unmapped low address before any store completes — there is no attacker-controlled pointer, offset or value, hence no write primitive or data modification.\nA:H - A NULL pointer dereference in the RPC transmit path oopses the kernel while XPRT_LOCKED is held, permanently wedging the NFS mount and killing the rpciod/xprtiod worker; with panic_on_oops (common on embedded, automotive and appliance deployments) it is a full panic, and the server can repeat it on every reconnect."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c"],"versions":[{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"cc91d59d34ff6a6fee1c0b48612081a451e05e9a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"86a1f9fa24804cd7f9d7dd3f24af84fc7f8ec02e","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"fe6cbf0b2ac3cf4e21824a44eaa336564ed5e960","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"87a95ee34a48dfad198a2002e4966e1d63d53f2b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"3811172e8c98ceebd12fe526ca6cb37a1263c964","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"638a8fa5a7e641f9401346c57e236f02379a0c40","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"66d11ca91bf5100ae2e6b5efad97e58d8448843a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"7196dbb02ea05835b9ee56910ee82cb55422c7f1","lessThan":"4db9ad82a6c823094da27de4825af693a3475d51","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c"],"versions":[{"version":"4.11","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"4.11","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.4.287","lessThanOrEqual":"5.4.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.231","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.174","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.120","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.64","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.11.11","lessThanOrEqual":"6.11.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.2","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.13","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"5.4.287"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.231"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.174"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.120"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.64"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.11.11"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"4.11","versionEndExcluding":"6.13"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cc91d59d34ff6a6fee1c0b48612081a451e05e9a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/86a1f9fa24804cd7f9d7dd3f24af84fc7f8ec02e"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fe6cbf0b2ac3cf4e21824a44eaa336564ed5e960"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/87a95ee34a48dfad198a2002e4966e1d63d53f2b"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3811172e8c98ceebd12fe526ca6cb37a1263c964"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/638a8fa5a7e641f9401346c57e236f02379a0c40"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/66d11ca91bf5100ae2e6b5efad97e58d8448843a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4db9ad82a6c823094da27de4825af693a3475d51"}],"title":"sunrpc:
