[PATCH 1/4] nfsd4: fix null dereference creating nfsv4 callback client

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On setting up the callback to the client, we attempt to use the same
authentication flavor the client did.  We find an rpc cred to use by
calling rpcauth_lookup_credcache(), which assumes that the given
authentication flavor has a credentials cache.  However, this is not
required to be true--in particular, auth_null does not use one.
Instead, we should call the auth's lookup_cred() method.

Without this, a client attempting to mount using nfsv4 and auth_null
triggers a null dereference.
