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

    nfsd: fix RELEASE_LOCKOWNER (CVE-2024-26629)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - nfsd: call op_release, even when op_func returns an error For ops with trivial replies,     nfsd4_encode_operation will shortcut most of the encoding work and skip to just marshalling up the status.
    One of the things it skips is calling op_release. This could cause a memory leak in the layoutget codepath     if there is an error at an inopportune time. Have the compound processing engine always call op_release,     even when op_func sets an error in op->status. With this change, we also need     nfsd4_block_get_device_info_scsi to set the gd_device pointer to NULL on error to avoid a double free.
