CVE-2026-53391

CVE-2026-53391 affects the Linux kernel NFSv4/pNFS code. The nfs4_decode_mp_ds_addr decoder can dereference NULL when an on-wire r_addr opaque has zero length, because xdr_stream_decode_string_dup() may yield NULL and the code then calls strrchr(NULL, '.') leading to a kernel NULL pointer derefer...
