Summary
nfsd: make sure exp active before svc_export_show
Details

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

nfsd: make sure exp active before svcexportshow

The function e_show was called with protection from RCU. This only ensures that exp will not be freed. Therefore, the reference count for exp can drop to zero, which will trigger a refcount use-after-free warning when exp_get is called. To resolve this issue, use cache_get_rcu to ensure that exp remains active.
