Subject: [PATCH 16/19] nfsd: validate sockaddr length per family in listener_set
Date: Tue, 09 Jun 2026 13:47:37 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260609-nfsd-testing-v1-16-e83acead2ae8@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260609-nfsd-testing-v1-0-e83acead2ae8@kernel.org>

nfsd_sock_nl_policy declares NFSD_A_SOCK_ADDR as bare NLA_BINARY
with no minimum length. A CAP_NET_ADMIN caller can send a 16-byte
NFSD_A_SOCK_ADDR with sa_family=AF_INET6, causing a 12-byte OOB
read across three consumers (rpc_cmp_addr_port, svc_find_listener,
kernel_bind).

Tighten the policy to NLA_POLICY_MIN_LEN(16) and add per-family
length validation in both nlmsg_for_each_attr_type loops.

Fixes: 16a471177496 ("NFSD: add listener-{set,get} netlink command")
