Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> NFSD: Finish converting the NFSv2 GETACL result encoder<br /> <br /> The xdr_stream conversion inadvertently left some code that set the<br /> page_len of the send buffer. The XDR stream encoders should handle<br /> this automatically now.<br /> <br /> This oversight adds garbage past the end of the Reply message.<br /> Clients typically ignore the garbage, but NFSD does not need to send<br /> it, as it leaks stale memory contents onto the wire.
