"scenarios": [
{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable code is the NFS client LOCALIO fast path, reached by ordinary read/write/commit syscalls against a mounted NFS filesystem (nfs_generic_pg_pgios and nfs_initiate_commit both call nfs_local_open_fh). LOCALIO by definition requires the nfsd server to be on the same host, so there is no remote packet path to this code.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race: one set of threads issues concurrent I/O to enter nfs_local_open_fh, while another forces nfs_localio_disable_client()/nfs_uuid_put() to free the cached nfsd_file (via -ENOMEM/-ENXIO/-ENOENT from __nfs_local_open_fh or -EAGAIN from nfs_local_doio). The window is repeatedly retriable at will and widened by preemption under CPU pressure.\nPR:L - Any unprivileged local user with access to files on a LOCALIO-enabled NFS mount can drive both sides purely with read/write/close syscalls; no capability check exists anywhere along nfs_generic_pg_pgios → nfs_local_open_fh. The mount itself is a deployment precondition rather than a privilege the attacker must hold.\nUI:N - The attacker triggers the race entirely from their own concurrent threads; no victim action is needed once the localio mount exists.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts kernel slab memory within the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - If the freed nfsd_file slot is reallocated, nfs_local_open_fh returns a pointer to a different live nfsd_file whose nf_file is then used for the NFS read, disclosing the contents of an unrelated file on the exported filesystem; more generally a UAF on the slab yields an arbitrary-read primitive.\nI:H - refcount_inc_not_zero() writes into freed/reallocated memory, and the returned stale nfsd_file is used for write_iter, corrupting a different file's data as well as another object's refcount, which enables a follow-on premature free and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Use-after-free on the nfsd_file slab causes refcount warnings, slab corruption and oops/panic, and the corrupted refcount leads to a second premature free of a live nfsd_file — a repeatable local denial of service."
