In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: sample writeback error cursor before async COPY loop
_nfsd_copy_file_range() samples dst->f_wb_err into "since"
after the copy loop, then uses it to detect writeback errors
via filemap_check_wb_err() once vfs_fsync_range() returns.
Because the nfsd_file cache reuses a single struct file
across requests targeting the same inode, a concurrent
COMMIT or stable WRITE on dst advances dst->f_wb_err to the
current mapping->wb_err via file_check_and_advance_wb_err()
during its own vfs_fsync_range(). If that advancement lands
between the writeback error appearing in mapping->wb_err
and the COPY worker sampling "since", the worker captures
the already-advanced cursor, errseq_check() sees cur ==
since and returns zero, and NFSD4_COPY_F_COMMITTED is set
even though writeback failed. CB_OFFLOAD then encodes
wr_stable_how = FILE_SYNC4, the client treats the copied
data as durable, and the failure becomes silent data loss.
Sample since once at the start of the function. The cursor
then reflects state in effect before this COPY issues any
writes, and filemap_check_wb_err() detects any error that
occurs during the copy regardless of which thread first
observes it. This matches the pattern used by
nfsd_vfs_write() and nfsd4_clone_file_range().
SSVC (CISA's decision table, applied by EchelonGraph)Track at low or medium mission impact; Track* at high (mission-essential systems).
A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines.
Exploitation none (no CISA value, KEV listing or exploit code on record) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). EchelonGraph holds no SSVC assessment of this CVE from CISA: none of these inputs is from Vulnrichment. EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse". CISA's decision table
BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
