How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:16.0.0 kernel-azure-vdso to version 6.12.0-160000.39.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-azure-vdso package and not the kernel-azure-vdso package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: set SC_STATUS_FREED in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid for delegations

nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid() handles FREE_STATEID for admin-revoked delegations but does not set SC_STATUS_FREED before releasing cl_lock. revoke_delegation() uses this flag to detect whether FREE_STATEID has already processed the delegation -- without it, the freed delegation is added to cl_revoked via list_add(), producing a use-after-free when cl_revoked is later traversed in __destroy_client().

The SC_STATUS_REVOKED path in nfsd4_free_stateid() (line 7983) already sets SC_STATUS_FREED correctly. Apply the same pattern to the SC_STATUS_ADMIN_REVOKED path in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid().
