{"cve":"CVE-2026-89713","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-11T20:19:58.743","modified":"2026-10-21T13:20:22.157","status":"Received","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nNFSD: check truncate permission under inode lock\n\nnfsd_setattr() checks whether a size update needs NFSD_MAY_TRUNC\nbefore it takes inode_lock(). The comparison uses the file size sampled\nby that unlocked read, but the actual ATTR_SIZE update is applied later\nunder inode_lock() by notify_change().\n\nThis leaves a TOCTOU window for append-only files. If a client sends a\nSETATTR that does not shrink the file at the time of the unlocked\nsample, a concurrent append can extend the file before nfsd_setattr()\ntakes inode_lock(). notify_change() then applies a real truncation\nwithout the NFSD_MAY_TRUNC check that rejects IS_APPEND(inode). The VFS\ntruncate syscall paths perform their own append-only checks before\ncalling notify_change(), so NFSD must make this decision against the\nlocked size it is about to change.\n\nSplit the write-count acquisition from the truncation permission check.\nKeep get_write_access() before the locked setattr work, then recheck\nwhether the requested size is below i_size_read(inode) after inode_lock()\nhas been acquired and before notify_change(ATTR_SIZE). This also avoids\nthe plain unlocked inode->i_size load.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","score":9.1},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3afa17d93ba8c925f49370c816c6dae5112d8c24","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/44086254479035de42ca3d286ecf25521d4e6325","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/52d0c5bdfe232c9974d4b11f97078b9c7814f05d","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b778e0e0a16759f22a70579c3cf8d254a40d4a7f","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d8352da196349182e1afd5a93308256cddc0a97d"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-22T16:41:11.231219466+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-89713","score":0.00612,"percentile":0.48993,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
