      <title>CVE-2024-56779 — nfsd: fix nfs4_openowner leak when concurrent nfsd4_open occur</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-56779</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nfsd: fix nfs4_openowner leak when concurrent nfsd4_open occur&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The action force umount(umount -f) will attempt to kill all rpc_task even
umount operation may ultimately fail if some files remain open.
Consequently, if an action attempts to open a file, it can potentially
send two rpc_task to nfs server.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;NFS CLIENT
thread1                             thread2
open(&amp;#34;file&amp;#34;)
...

 _nfs4_do_open
  _nfs4_open_and_get_state
   _nfs4_proc_open
    nfs4_run_open_task
     /* rpc_task1 */
     rpc_run_task
     rpc_wait_for_completion_task&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;umount -f
                                    nfs_umount_begin
                                     rpc_killall_tasks
                                      rpc_signal_task
     rpc_task1 been wakeup
     and return -512
 _nfs4_do_open // while loop
    ...
    nfs4_run_open_task
     /* rpc_task2 */
     rpc_run_task
     rpc_wait_for_completion_task&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While processing an open request, nfsd will first attempt to find or
allocate an nfs4_openowner. If it finds an nfs4_openowner that is not
marked as NFS4_OO_CONFIRMED, this nfs4_openowner will released. Since
two rpc_task can attempt to open the same file simultaneously from the
client to server, and because two instances of nfsd can run
concurrently, this situation can lead to lots of memory leak.
Additionally, when we echo 0 to /proc/fs/nfsd/threads, warning will b…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
