What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: set SC_STATUS_FREED in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid for delegations

nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid() handles FREE_STATEID for admin-revoked

delegations but does not set SC_STATUS_FREED before releasing cl_lock.

revoke_delegation() uses this flag to detect whether FREE_STATEID has

already processed the delegation -- without it, the freed delegation is

added to cl_revoked via list_add(), producing a use-after-free when

cl_revoked is later traversed in __destroy_client().

The SC_STATUS_REVOKED path in nfsd4_free_stateid() (line 7983) already

sets SC_STATUS_FREED correctly. Apply the same pattern to the

SC_STATUS_ADMIN_REVOKED path in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid().
