Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> nfsd: Fix cred ref leak in nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit().<br /> <br /> nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit() uses get_current_cred() without<br /> put_cred().<br /> <br /> As we can see from other callers, svc_xprt_create_from_sa()<br /> does not require the extra refcount.<br /> <br /> nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit() is always in the process context,<br /> sendmsg(), and current-&gt;cred does not go away.<br /> <br /> Let&amp;#39;s use current_cred() in nfsd_nl_listener_set_doit().
