When\nthe NFSv4-to-POSIX ACL conversion fails (e.g., -EINVAL for\nunsupported ACE types), the file is created without any ACL and the\nclient receives NFS4_OK. This violates RFC 7530/8881 which require\nthe server to reject unsupported attributes on CREATE.\n\nWhen start_creating() fails after ACL attributes have been populated\nin attrs (either via nfsd4_acl_to_attr or via ownership transfer from\nopen->op_dpacl/op_pacl), the function jumps to out_write which skips\nnfsd_attrs_free(). The posix_acl allocations are leaked. A client\ncan trigger this repeatedly with OPEN(CREATE), ACL attributes, and an\ninvalid filename (e.g., longer than NAME_MAX).\n\nFix both by capturing the nfsd4_acl_to_attr() return value and by\nchanging the early error paths to jump to out instead of out_write.\nInitialize child to ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) so that end_creating() is safe\nto call even if start_creating() was never reached."}], "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"], "versions": [{"version": "7ab96df840e60eb933abfe65fc5fe44e72f16dc0", "lessThan": "18cf006a08babec0bbac2a3784f8f28e56e47490", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git"}, {"version": "7ab96df840e60eb933abfe65fc5fe44e72f16dc0", "lessThan": "24c975bbdd564d7d0ad90294bfa69729830345de", "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"], "versions": [{"version": "6.19", "status": "affected"}, {"version": "0", "lessThan": "6.19", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.1.3", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver"}, {"version": "7.2-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": "6.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.3"}, {"vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.19", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2-rc1"}]}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/18cf006a08babec0bbac2a3784f8f28e56e47490"}, {"url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/24c975bbdd564d7d0ad90294bfa69729830345de"}], "title": "nfsd: fix posix_acl leak and ignored error in nfsd4_create_file", "x_generator": {"engine": "bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
