Descriptions

In the Linux kernel before 5.7.8, fs/nfsd/vfs.c (in the NFS server) can set incorrect permissions on new filesystem objects when the filesystem lacks ACL support, aka CID-22cf8419f131. This occurs because the current umask is not considered.

En el kernel de Linux versiones anteriores a 5.7.8, el archivo fs/nfsd/vfs.c (en el servidor NFS), puede establecer permisos incorrectos en nuevos objetos de un sistema de archivos cuando el sistema de archivos carece de soporte de ACL, tambiƩn se conoce como CID-22cf8419f131. Esto ocurre porque no es considerada la umask actual.

A vulnerability was found in NFSv4.2 in the Linux kernel, where a server fails to correctly apply umask when creating a new object on filesystem without ACL support (for example, ext4 with the "noacl" mount option). This flaw allows a local attacker with a user privilege to cause a kernel information leak problem.
