CVE-2026-93221CVE-2026-93221
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: convert nfsd_net boolean flags to unsigned long flags word
nfsd_net contains several boolean fields that are accessed from
concurrent contexts without serialization. In particular,
nfsd4_end_grace() guards its drain path with a plain bool:
if (nn->grace_ended)
return;
nn->grace_ended = true;
The read and the write are independent, and nothing in struct
nfsd_net serializes them. At least two contexts can reach this
code with no lock held:
laundromat path
laundry_wq kworker
nfs4_laundromat()
nfsd4_end_grace()
RECLAIM_COMPLETE path
nfsd compound kthread
nfsd4_reclaim_complete()
inc_reclaim_complete()
nfsd4_end_grace()
Both callers can observe grace_ended == false on different CPUs,
both store true, and both proceed into nfsd4_record_grace_done(),
which invokes the active client_tracking_ops->grace_done callback.
