commit 6b3dccd48de8a4c650b01499a0b09d1e2279649e upstream. There's no protection in nfsd_dispatch() against a NULL .pc_func helpers. A malicious NFS client can trigger a crash by invoking the unused/unsupported NFSv2 ROOT or WRITECACHE procedures. The current NFSD dispatcher does not support returning a void reply to a non-NULL procedure, so the reply to both of these is wrong, for the moment.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
