Hmm, both apply on top of 4.9.155, still but with line numbers
adjusted (I'm attaching the respective rebased patches). Actually my
question on the respective backports was originally triggered due to
https://bugs-devel.debian.org/898060

The problem actually is on the 'tested' part, as Donald did no
testing/reproducing with 4.9 itself.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] nfsd4: fix cached replies to solo SEQUENCE compounds

commit 085def3ade52f2ffe3e31f42e98c27dcc222dd37 upstream.

Currently our handling of 4.1+ requests without "cachethis" set is
confusing and not quite correct.

Suppose a client sends a compound consisting of only a single SEQUENCE
op, and it matches the seqid in a session slot (so it's a retry), but
the previous request with that seqid did not have "cachethis" set.

The obvious thing to do might be to return NFS4ERR_RETRY_UNCACHED_REP,
but the protocol only allows that to be returned on the op following the
SEQUENCE, and there is no such op in this case.

The protocol permits us to cache replies even if the client didn't ask
us to.  And it's easy to do so in the case of solo SEQUENCE compounds.

So, when we get a solo SEQUENCE, we can either return the previously
cached reply or NFSERR_SEQ_FALSE_RETRY if we notice it differs in some
way from the original call.

Currently, we're returning a corrupt reply in the case a solo SEQUENCE
matches a previous compound with more ops.  This actually matters
because the Linux client recently started doing this as a way to recover
from lost replies to idempotent operations in the case the process doing
the original reply was killed: in that case it's difficult to keep the
original arguments around to do a real retry, and the client no longer
cares what the result is anyway, but it would like to make sure that the
slot's sequence id has been incremented, and the solo SEQUENCE assures
that: if the server never got the original reply, it will increment the
sequence id.  If it did get the original reply, it won't increment, and
nothing else that about the reply really matters much.  But we can at
least attempt to return valid xdr!

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] nfsd4: catch some false session retries

commit 53da6a53e1d414e05759fa59b7032ee08f4e22d7 upstream.

The spec allows us to return NFS4ERR_SEQ_FALSE_RETRY if we notice that
the client is making a call that matches a previous (slot, seqid) pair
but that *isn't* actually a replay, because some detail of the call
doesn't actually match the previous one.

Catching every such case is difficult, but we may as well catch a few
easy ones.  This also handles the case described in the previous patch,
in a different way.

The spec does however require us to catch the case where the difference
is in the rpc credentials.  This prevents somebody from snooping another
user's replies by fabricating retries.

(But the practical value of the attack is limited by the fact that the
replies with the most sensitive data are READ replies, which are not
normally cached.)
