Commit Message

Roopa Kalmath Oct. 9, 2026, 12:02 p.m. UTC 
U-Boot before 2026.07-rc2 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in
nfs_readlink_reply() (net/nfs-common.c) when CONFIG_CMD_NFS is enabled,
allowing a malicious or compromised NFS server to overflow the 2048-byte
nfs_path_buff buffer by returning multiple relative symlink targets that
are appended without cumulative length validation. Attackers can send
two or more READLINK responses containing relative symlink targets of
approximately 1100 bytes each to corrupt adjacent BSS variables
including nfs_server_ip, nfs_server_mount_port, nfs_server_port,
nfs_our_port, nfs_state, and rpc_id, potentially achieving memory
corruption and control over the NFS client state machine.

Backport the patch to fix CVE-2026-29009:
