Description

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

NFSD: Avoid calling OPDESC() with ops->opnum == OP_ILLEGAL

OPDESC() simply indexes into nfsd4_ops[] by the op's operation
number, without range checking that value. It assumes callers are
careful to avoid calling it with an out-of-bounds opnum value.

nfsd4_decode_compound() is not so careful, and can invoke OPDESC()
with opnum set to OP_ILLEGAL, which is 10044 -- well beyond the end
of nfsd4_ops[].
