During per-net teardown,\nnn->nfsd_serv is cleared before the filecache laundrette is shut\ndown, so the service thread can still run a dispose pass that finds\nmore than eight entries on l->freeme and dereferences a NULL\nsvc_serv:\n\n    nfsd service thread loop\n      nfsd_file_net_dispose(nn)\n        if (!list_empty(&l->freeme)) {\n            ...\n            svc_wake_up(nn->nfsd_serv);   /* nn->nfsd_serv == NULL */\n        }\n\nThe sibling helper nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() already documents\nthis ordering and caches nn->nfsd_serv into a local before testing it\nfor NULL.  nfsd_file_net_dispose() was introduced with the same raw\nsvc_wake_up(nn->nfsd_serv) call and never picked up the guard.\n\nFix by loading nn->nfsd_serv into a local svc_serv pointer and only\ncalling svc_wake_up() when it is non-NULL, matching the pattern in\nnfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed()."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/nfsd/filecache.c"],"versions":[{"version":"ffb402596147ac583f3464ff5c48feb9423e3838","lessThan":"f4776c1c4b38fbc459420321c8ece87d0f7f95fb","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"ffb402596147ac583f3464ff5c48feb9423e3838","lessThan":"59baf45a06435194005fc5fa9a42d89f77a30432","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"ffb402596147ac583f3464ff5c48feb9423e3838","lessThan":"766170b4fd2daaf5c4d6735560101474e18edab6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"ffb402596147ac583f3464ff5c48feb9423e3838","lessThan":"9f1ddfc8cb9076592401a611eb3a44d36186d014","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/filecache.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.9","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.9","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.109","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.50","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.4","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":"6.12.109"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.9","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.50"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.9","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.4"},{"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/f4776c1c4b38fbc459420321c8ece87d0f7f95fb"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/59baf45a06435194005fc5fa9a42d89f77a30432"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/766170b4fd2daaf5c4d6735560101474e18edab6"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9f1ddfc8cb9076592401a611eb3a44d36186d014"}],"title":"nfsd: guard nfsd_serv deref in nfsd_file_net_dispose","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
