  "summary": "NFS: fix delegation_hash_table leak when nfs4_server_common_setup() fails",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nNFS: fix delegation_hash_table leak when nfs4_server_common_setup() fails\n\nnfs4_server_common_setup() allocates server->delegation_hash_table\nfirst, but server->destroy - the only path that frees the table via\nnfs4_destroy_server() - is not assigned until the very end of the\nfunction. If any intermediate step fails (the is_ds_only_client()\ncheck, nfs4_init_session(), nfs4_get_rootfh(), or nfs_probe_server()),\nthe function returns with server->destroy still NULL, so the caller's\nnfs_free_server() skips the destroy callback and the hash table is\nleaked (4 KiB per attempt with the default delegation watermark).\n\nThis is trivially reachable from userspace: every failed NFSv4 mount\nleaks one allocation. A client that persistently retries a mount that\ncannot succeed leaks kernel memory without bound. Observed in\nproduction where a Longhorn backup poller retried mount.nfs4 against\nan NFSv3-only server roughly 10 times per second, leaking ~3.4 GiB of\nunreclaimable slab (kmalloc-rnd-13-4k) per day; the node accumulated\n12 GiB of leaked slab before the source was identified via the\nkmem:kmalloc tracepoint (call_site=nfs4_delegation_hash_alloc).\n\nReproducer:\n\n  # server exports NFSv3 only (or export path absent for v4)\n  while :; do mount -t nfs4 <server>:/missing /mnt; done\n  # watch SUnreclaim in /proc/meminfo grow 4 KiB per iteration\n\nFree the table on the error paths between the allocation and the\nassignment of server->destroy.",
