Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-11 21:31 – Updated: 2026-09-11 21:31

Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: check nfsd4_acl_to_attr() return value in nfsd4_create()

nfsd4_create() stores the return value of nfsd4_acl_to_attr() in status, but the switch(create->cr_type) block unconditionally overwrites it in every branch. ACL translation errors are silently discarded, and the CREATE proceeds without the requested ACL.

Add an early exit check after nfsd4_acl_to_attr(), matching the pattern already used in nfsd4_setattr().

[ cel: prefer NFS4ERR_BADTYPE over NFS4ERR_ATTRNOTSUPP ]

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.
