Technical ContextAI · show details

fs/nfs/nfs4client.c in the Linux kernel before 5.13.4 has incorrect connection-setup ordering, which allows operators of remote NFSv4 servers to cause a denial of service (hanging of mounts) by arranging for those servers to be unreachable during trunking detection. Affected products include: Linux Linux Kernel, Netapp Hci Bootstrap Os, Netapp Hci Management Node, Netapp Solidfire, Netapp Element Software. Version information: before 5.13.4.
