In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Reset write verifier when async COPY writeback fails
Async COPY captures nn->writeverf at request time and reports it to
the client via CB_OFFLOAD after the worker kthread completes. When
the post-copy vfs_fsync_range() or filemap_check_wb_err() in
_nfsd_copy_file_range() reports an error, the worker correctly
leaves NFSD4_COPY_F_COMMITTED clear so that CB_OFFLOAD encodes
wr_stable_how as NFS_UNSTABLE, but the server's write verifier is
not rotated.
A client that receives NFS_UNSTABLE in CB_OFFLOAD follows up with
COMMIT to make the copied data durable. With the verifier
unchanged, COMMIT returns the same value the client just received
via CB_OFFLOAD, and the client concludes the copy is durable --
silently dropping the data whose writeback in fact failed. This
violates the UNSTABLE+COMMIT durability contract (RFC 7862 section
15.1, RFC 8881 section 18.32) and matches the bug just fixed in
nfsd_vfs_write() and nfsd_commit().
Rotate nn->writeverf at the writeback-failure site. The async COPY
worker has no svc_rqst, so commit_reset_write_verifier() is not
available here; calling nfsd_reset_write_verifier() directly
mirrors the trace-less reset already used by
nfsd_file_check_write_error() for the same purpose. Filter out
-EAGAIN and -ESTALE, matching commit_reset_write_verifier(), since
neither indicates a durable-storage failure.
