Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
nfsd: fix posix_acl leak and ignored error in nfsd4_create_file<br />
<br />
nfsd4_create_file() has two bugs in its ACL handling:<br />
<br />
The return value of nfsd4_acl_to_attr() is silently discarded. When<br />
the NFSv4-to-POSIX ACL conversion fails (e.g., -EINVAL for<br />
unsupported ACE types), the file is created without any ACL and the<br />
client receives NFS4_OK. This violates RFC 7530/8881 which require<br />
the server to reject unsupported attributes on CREATE.<br />
<br />
When start_creating() fails after ACL attributes have been populated<br />
in attrs (either via nfsd4_acl_to_attr or via ownership transfer from<br />
open->op_dpacl/op_pacl), the function jumps to out_write which skips<br />
nfsd_attrs_free(). The posix_acl allocations are leaked. A client<br />
can trigger this repeatedly with OPEN(CREATE), ACL attributes, and an<br />
invalid filename (e.g., longer than NAME_MAX).<br />
<br />
Fix both by capturing the nfsd4_acl_to_attr() return value and by<br />
changing the early error paths to jump to out instead of out_write.<br />
Initialize child to ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) so that end_creating() is safe<br />
to call even if start_creating() was never reached.
