The latter is\nan O(n^2) bubble sort, so a client-chosen count drives unbounded CPU in\nthe server's compound processing path.\n\n    nfsd4_decode_posixacl()\n      xdr_stream_decode_u32(&count)       /* uncapped u32 */\n      posix_acl_alloc(count, GFP_KERNEL)\n      sort_pacl_range(*acl, 0, count - 1) /* O(n^2) bubble sort */\n\nThe encoder side in the same file already rejects ACLs whose a_count\nexceeds NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES, but the decoder introduced in commit\n5fc51dfc2eb1 (\"NFSD: Add support for XDR decoding POSIX draft ACLs\")\nomitted the symmetric check.\n\nFix by rejecting a wire count greater than NFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES with\nnfserr_inval, before any allocation, so the sort is bounded by\nNFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES^2 comparisons.\n\nWhile we're in here, also fix the nfserr_resource return if\nposix_acl_alloc() fails. That's not a legal error code for v4.1+. Change\nit to return nfserr_jukebox as that's more appropriate for memory\nallocation failures.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-11T19:46:14.258+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T08:51:08.488+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"5fc51dfc2eb160bd7ab3251ab1767cacf9c8bf05\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"ea14d71d6ecb925673761bcf79f781f7dc9042cc\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"5fc51dfc2eb160bd7ab3251ab1767cacf9c8bf05\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"4bc1108e876153a2dd6d874052b99182c3603135\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"git\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"Linux","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"product\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"vendor\": \"Linux\",\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\",\n                    \"programFiles\": [\n                        \"fs/nfsd/nfs4xdr.c\"\n                    ],\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"7.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.2.4\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"7.2.*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        },\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"7.3\",\n                            \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\",\n                            \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ea14d71d6ecb925673761bcf79f781f7dc9042cc","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4bc1108e876153a2dd6d874052b99182c3603135"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-89695","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-89695","identifiers":["CVE-2026-89695"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
