Title
NFSv4.0: Fix a use-after-free problem in the asynchronous open()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4.0: Fix a use-after-free problem in the asynchronous open()
Yang Erkun reports that when two threads are opening files at the same
time, and are forced to abort before a reply is seen, then the call to
nfs_release_seqid() in nfs4_opendata_free() can result in a
use-after-free of the pointer to the defunct rpc task of the other
thread.
The fix is to ensure that if the RPC call is aborted before the call to
nfs_wait_on_sequence() is complete, then we must call nfs_release_seqid()
in nfs4_open_release() before the rpc_task is freed.

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable code is the in-kernel NFSv4.0 client, driven by local `open()`/`openat()` syscalls on a mounted NFSv4.0 share (`nfs4_atomic_open` \u2192 `nfs4_do_open` \u2192 `nfs4_run_open_task`); the attacker must be able to issue file opens and signals on the local system. A malicious or unresponsive server only influences timing, it cannot initiate the opens itself.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race: state owners are keyed by credential, so several threads of the same unprivileged user opening files on the same NFSv4.0 mount are forcibly serialized on one seqid list, and the attacker chooses the thread count, the open pattern, and when to abort them with fatal signals, retrying in a loop until the window is hit. An NFSv4.0 mount is a common, non-exotic deployment (and a server can negotiate the client down to 4.0), so no condition outside attacker control is required.\nPR:L - Any unprivileged local user with access to an NFSv4.0 mount can trigger this \u2014 the path is reached through the ordinary `open()` syscall with no capability, and the aborts are just fatal signals delivered to the attacker\u0027s own threads. No root or CAP_* is checked anywhere along `nfs_atomic_open` \u2192 `nfs4_do_open` \u2192 `nfs4_open_prepare`/`nfs4_open_release`.\nUI:N - The attacker\u0027s own multi-threaded process performs the opens and the aborts; no action by another user or administrator is needed beyond the NFSv4.0 mount already being present in the target environment.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts kernel heap objects (`struct rpc_task`) within the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The freed `rpc_task` slot can be reclaimed by attacker-driven allocations, and the stale pointer is then dereferenced through `rpc_wake_up_queued_task()`/`__rpc_execute()`, giving a use-after-free read of reclaimed kernel data and a route to disclosing kernel memory and pointers.\nI:H - The dangling pointer is written through, not just read: `__rpc_remove_wait_queue()` performs `list_del` into the freed object and its neighbors, `rpc_make_runnable()` writes `INIT_WORK(\u0026task-\u003eu.tk_work, ...)` and queues it, after which `__rpc_execute()` invokes `task-\u003etk_action`/`task-\u003etk_callback` function pointers read from the freed slot \u2014 a control-flow hijack / arbitrary-write primitive after heap grooming.\nA:H - Even unexploited, waking a freed `rpc_task` corrupts the sunrpc wait-queue lists and dereferences garbage function pointers, reliably producing a kernel oops/panic; the attacker can repeat the trigger at will."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.
Experimental. This forecast is provided for visualization only and may change without notice. Do not use it for operational decisions.
Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

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.
