All three handlers gate that walk on\nnn->nfsd_serv, but a listener added via portlist or netlink\nlistener_set sets nn->nfsd_serv before any nfsd thread starts.\nnfsd_startup_net() has not yet allocated nn->conf_id_hashtbl, so the\nwalkers dereference a NULL table.  A local administrator with\nCAP_SYS_ADMIN can crash the kernel this way without ever starting the\nserver.\n\nnn->nfsd_serv is set when the service is created, which precedes\ntable allocation.  NFSD_NET_UP instead brackets the window where the\ntables are live: set at the end of nfsd_startup_net() and cleared in\nnfsd_shutdown_net() after they are freed, both under nfsd_mutex.\nGating the three unlock paths on NFSD_NET_UP fixes the startup-time\nNULL dereference while preserving the earlier post-shutdown\nuse-after-free fix."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c","fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c","fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c"],"versions":[{"version":"1ac3629bf012592cb0320e52a1cceb319a05ad17","lessThan":"73bf459d696ecf207a9037bf9bb70c51a459469e","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"1ac3629bf012592cb0320e52a1cceb319a05ad17","lessThan":"104a51265042b4424085741c963cb858ac29ec0b","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"1ac3629bf012592cb0320e52a1cceb319a05ad17","lessThan":"0146467a2fce845cb6629979c3e9c58dd3d3a6a3","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"1ac3629bf012592cb0320e52a1cceb319a05ad17","lessThan":"2f3e6638aebc0ab8afb8b4e9816ea9a1cad85378","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/nfsd/nfs4proc.c","fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c","fs/nfsd/nfsctl.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.9","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.9","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.111","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.51","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.5","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","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":"6.9","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.111"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.9","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.51"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.9","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.5"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.9","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/73bf459d696ecf207a9037bf9bb70c51a459469e"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/104a51265042b4424085741c963cb858ac29ec0b"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0146467a2fce845cb6629979c3e9c58dd3d3a6a3"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2f3e6638aebc0ab8afb8b4e9816ea9a1cad85378"}],"title":"NFSD: Guard admin state-revocation walks with NFSD_NET_UP","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
