Subject: nfsd: Limit end of page list when decoding NFSv4 WRITE
From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit fc788f64f1f3eb31e87d4f53bcf1ab76590d5838 upstream.
When processing an NFSv4 WRITE operation, argp->end should never
point past the end of the data in the final page of the page list.
Otherwise, nfsd4_decode_compound can walk into uninitialized memory.
More critical, nfsd4_decode_write is failing to increment argp->pagelen
when it increments argp->pagelist. This can cause later xdr decoders
to assume more data is available than really is, which can cause server
crashes on malformed requests.
