CVE-2026-90038
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during export state revocation
nfsd4revokeexport_states() has the same use-after-free as
nfsd4revokestates(): it drops nn->client_lock across
revokeonestid() and the following read of clp->cl_minorversion, but
the stateid reference it holds does not pin the client. A teardown
racing the dropped lock can free the client while revokeonestid()
still dereferences it.
exportfs -u drives this path through NFSDCMDUNLOCK_EXPORT, so an
administrator removing an export can race a client expiry.
Skip a client that is already expiring and otherwise pin it with
clrpcusers under client_lock before dropping the lock, matching
nfsd4revokestates().
