CVE-2026-53398

EUVD-2026-45520
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NFSD: Fix SECINFO_NO_NAME decode error cleanup

nfsd4_decode_secinfo_no_name() currently initializes sin_exp after
decoding sin_style. If the XDR stream is truncated, the decoder returns
nfserr_bad_xdr before sin_exp is initialized.

Since commit 3fdc54646234 ("NFSD: Reduce amount of struct
nfsd4_compoundargs that needs clearing"), the inline iops array is not
cleared between RPC calls. A failed SECINFO_NO_NAME decode can therefore
leave sin_exp holding stale union contents from a previous operation.

The error response path still invokes nfsd4_secinfo_no_name_release(),
which calls exp_put() on a non-NULL sin_exp.

Initialize sin_exp before the first failable decode step, matching
nfsd4_decode_secinfo().
