Summary

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.

In the reverse direction\n(xpt_locallen \u003c xpt_remotelen) the slot is oversized and the\nunwritten tail leaks prior ring-buffer contents to trace consumers.\n\nThe write-past-end case is reachable on NFS/UDP. svc_xprt_set_remote()\nis only called from svc_tcp_accept() (net/sunrpc/svcsock.c) and from\nthe RDMA connect path; svc_create_socket() for UDP calls only\nsvc_xprt_set_local(), so xpt_remotelen stays 0 for the xprt\u0027s\nlifetime. Every fh_verify trace for an NFSv2/v3-over-UDP request\nthen copies 16 or 28 bytes from xpt_local into a zero-byte slot.\n\nThe other NFSD tracepoints that record the server address\n(NFSD_TRACE_PROC_CALL_FIELDS, NFSD_TRACE_PROC_RES_FIELDS,\nSVC_RQST_ENDPOINT_FIELDS) already size the server slot by\nxpt_locallen; nfsd_fh_verify and nfsd_fh_verify_err were the only\nexceptions.\n\nFix by sizing the server slot with xpt_locallen so the declared slot\nmatches the copy length. The client slot and its assignment already\nagree on xpt_remotelen and are left untouched."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
