Service interruption via leaked idmap cache references
Published Oct 21, 2024 · Updated May 12, 2026
Resource leakage in Linux kernel nfsd allows local users to interrupt service by exhausting cached identity-mapping references. When xdr_reserve_space returns NULL after idmap_lookup acquires a cache reference, the error path omits the matching cache_put. A low-privilege local account must exercise nfsd with insufficient response-buffer space; repeated leaks can exhaust resources and interrupt service.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=V3.1.0 <V3.1.5
