Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2022-49316 is an improper-locking flaw in the Linux kernel NFSv4 implementation. During layoutget processing performed as part of an open() compound operation, layoutget locks can remain held when subsequent RPC calls are made. A subsequent operation such as setattr() can trigger an NFS recall; processing that recall while the layout locks are retained can deadlock.
