In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix null dereference in nfsd4_setattr for deleg timestamp attrs
When a SETATTR request includes FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS or FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_MODIFY in the attribute bitmap, nfsd4_setattr() sets deleg_attrs=true and calls nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() to validate the stateid.
If the client supplies the NFSv4 "one stateid" (all-0xFF bytes), check_special_stateids() returns nfs_ok without populating the output nfs4_stid pointer, because the special-stateid path in nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op() jumps to done: with s==NULL, and the "if (s)" block that would set *cstid is skipped. The local variable `st` remains NULL.
Back in nfsd4_setattr(), the if (deleg_attrs) block then unconditionally dereferences st->sc_type (at offset 4 from NULL), causing a kernel oops.
This is remotely triggerable by any NFSv4 client: send COMPOUND [PUTROOTFH,
SETATTR(ONE_STATEID, {bmval2=FATTR4_WORD2_TIME_DELEG_ACCESS, ...})].
No authentication, delegation, or prior state is required.
Fix by adding a NULL check before the dereference. A special stateid is not a delegation stateid, so the existing nfserr_bad_stateid return value is already correct; we only need to guard the pointer dereference itself.
