CVSS v3.1

5.5

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description: The issue concerns the initialization of the struct nfsd4 copy in the Linux kernel's NFSD component. Specifically, the refcount and async copies fields must be initialized early to prevent potential issues, such as a refcount underflow, when the cleanup async copy() function references these fields in case of an error in nfsd4 copy().
Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
