CVE-2022-49418

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved, related to the NFSv4 protocol. The issue occurred during referral lookup, where an uninitialized nfs4 label was freed, causing a crash. The problem was fixed by sending the already-allocated fattr along with nfs4 fs locations and dropping the memcpy of fattr. This fix resolves a crash that occurred when the ls command was executed.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
