Linux NFS server may write beyond its buffer

CVE-2026-89702 · published 1 month ago
Summary

The NFS server code in the Linux kernel could copy network address data past the space that was set aside for it, potentially overwriting nearby memory. This can happen with NFS‑over‑UDP traffic and may expose internal data or cause instability. Update the Linux kernel to the latest version provided by your distribution to apply the fix.

What to do
  • Update debian linux to version 7.2.6-1.
  • Update linux kernel to version 7.2.4.
  • Update bellsoft linux-lts to version 6.18.53-r0.
  • Update debian linux to version 6.12.111-1.
  • Update bellsoft linux-lts to version 6.12.111-r0.
  • Update debian linux-6.12 to version 6.12.111-1~deb12u1.
  • Update linux linux to version 95d064f9828a20ccca5ae90a17be3e2076f25272 or later.

Original advisory text
nfsd: size fh_verify server sockaddr slot by xpt_locallen
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: size fh_verify server sockaddr slot by xpt_locallen

The nfsd_fh_verify and nfsd_fh_verify_err tracepoints declare the
server sockaddr slot sized by xpt_remotelen but fill it from
xpt_local using xpt_locallen:

TP_STRUCT__entry(
...
__sockaddr(server, rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_remotelen)
...
)
TP_fast_assign(
...
__assign_sockaddr(server, &rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_local,
rqstp->rq_xprt->xpt_locallen);
...
)

When xpt_locallen exceeds xpt_remotelen, __assign_sockaddr's memcpy
writes past the reserved ring-buffer slot. In the reverse direction
(xpt_locallen < xpt_remotelen) the slot is oversized and the
unwritten tail leaks prior ring-buffer contents to trace consumers.

The write-past-end case is reachable on NFS/UDP. svc_xprt_set_remote()
is only called from svc_tcp_accept() (net/sunrpc/svcsock.c) and from
the RDMA connect path; svc_create_socket() for UDP calls only
svc_xprt_set_local(), so xpt_remotelen stays 0 for the xprt's
lifetime. Every fh_verify trace for an NFSv2/v3-over-UDP request
then copies 16 or 28 bytes from xpt_local into a zero-byte slot.

The other NFSD tracepoints that record the server address
(NFSD_TRACE_PROC_CALL_FIELDS, NFSD_TRACE_PROC_RES_FIELDS,
SVC_RQST_ENDPOINT_FIELDS) already size the server slot by
xpt_locallen; nfsd_fh_verify and nfsd_fh_verify_err were the only
exceptions.

Fix by sizing the server slot with xpt_locallen so the declared slot
matches the copy length. The client slot and its assignment already
agree on xpt_remotelen and are left untouched.
