CVE-2024-53216 (Moderate severity, published 2024-12-26)
CVSS score: 7.1 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H)
CWE: CWE-416
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: release svc_expkey/svc_export with rcu_work

The last reference for `cache_head` can be reduced to zero in `c_show`
and `e_show`(using `rcu_read_lock` and `rcu_read_unlock`). Consequently,
`svc_export_put` and `expkey_put` will be invoked, leading to two
issues:

1. The `svc_export_put` will directly free ex_uuid. However,
   `e_show`/`c_show` will access `ex_uuid` after `cache_put`, which can
   trigger a use-after-free issue, shown below.

2. We cannot sleep while using `rcu_read_lock`/`rcu_read_unlock`.
   However, `svc_export_put`/`expkey_put` will call path_put, which
   subsequently triggers a sleeping operation due to the following
   `dput`.

Fix these issues by using `rcu_work` to help release
`svc_expkey`/`svc_export`. This approach allows for an asynchronous
context to invoke `path_put` and also facilitates the freeing of
`uuid/exp/key` after an RCU grace period.
