  "summary": "nfsd: don't free session slots that are still in use",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnfsd: don't free session slots that are still in use\n\nnfsd4_sequence() can free the very slot it is currently processing.\nWhen the session shrinker has reduced se_target_maxslots below\nse_fchannel.maxreqs, the shrink path checks three conditions before\ncalling free_session_slots():\n\n  1. se_target_maxslots < maxreqs  (shrink was advertised)\n  2. slot->sl_generation == se_slot_gen  (slot is up-to-date)\n  3. seq->maxslots <= se_target_maxslots  (client acknowledges)\n\nHowever, seq->slotid is never checked against se_target_maxslots.\nA client using a slot in the range [se_target_maxslots, maxreqs) can\nsatisfy all three conditions: its slot has the current generation\n(set by a prior SEQUENCE), and it sends sa_highest_slotid <=\nse_target_maxslots to acknowledge the reduction.\n\nfree_session_slots() then kfrees every slot at index >=\nse_target_maxslots, including the caller's own slot. The function\ncontinues to write sl_seqid, sl_flags, sl_generation, and stores the\ndangling pointer in cstate->slot. Later, nfsd4_store_cache_entry()\ncopies up to maxresp_cached bytes of the compound reply into the freed\nsl_data[] array, corrupting whatever slab object now occupies that\naddress.\n\nAdditionally, a concurrent thread processing SEQUENCE on a different\nhigh-numbered slot can have its slot freed out from under it.\nNFSD4_SLOT_INUSE is set under nn->client_lock before the lock is\nreleased, so any concurrent thread past SEQUENCE will have its slot\nmarked. However, free_session_slots() does not check NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE\nbefore freeing.\n\nFix both problems by:\n 1. Checking that the current request's slotid is below the shrink\n    boundary.\n 2. Scanning slots in the to-be-freed range for NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE and\n    deferring the shrink if any are active.",
