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

NFSD: Fix infinite loop in layout state revocation

findonesbstid() skips stids whose scstatus is non-zero, but the SCTYPELAYOUT case in nfsd4revokestates() never sets scstatus before calling nfsd4closelayout(). The retry loop therefore finds the same layout stid on every iteration, hanging the revoker indefinitely.
