Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Avoid calling OPDESC() with ops->opnum == OP_ILLEGAL
OPDESC() simply indexes into nfsd4_ops[] by the op's operation
number, without range checking that value. It assumes callers are
careful to avoid calling it with an out-of-bounds opnum value.
nfsd4_decode_compound() is not so careful, and can invoke OPDESC()
with opnum set to OP_ILLEGAL, which is 10044 -- well beyond the end
of nfsd4_ops[].
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 4.14 < 5.10.220)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.107)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.24)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.2.11)
• linux linux kernel 6.3
