This was committed in upstream kernel recently. "[PATCH] nfsd: fix buffer overrun decoding NFSv4 acl The array we kmalloc() here is not large enough." Upstream commit: 91b80969ba466ba4b915a4a1d03add8c297add3f The array allocated in init_state() is not large enough. It is possible to write past the end of the allocated memory. This requires NFSv4 to be enabled. References: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/3/286 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461101 Thanks, Eugene -- Eugene Teo / Red Hat Security Response Team
