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

nfsd: fix partial-write detection in nfsd_direct_write

nfsd_direct_write() walks a list of write segments and, after each
vfs_iocb_iter_write(), tries to detect a short write so the loop can
stop before placing the next segment at a wrong file offset:

    host_err = vfs_iocb_iter_write(file, kiocb, &segments[i].iter);
    if (host_err < 0)
            return host_err;
    *cnt += host_err;
    if (host_err < segments[i].iter.count)
            break;	/* partial write */

vfs_iocb_iter_write() runs the iter through ->write_iter(), which
advances the iter by the number of bytes written. By the time the
check runs, segments[i].iter.count is the residual, not the original
request length:

    before write_iter: iter.count == original_len
    after  write_iter: iter.count == original_len - host_err

The condition then reduces to host_err < original_len - host_err, so
the break fires only when less than half of the segment was written.
Any short write completing between 50% and 99% of the segment slips
through; the loop advances to the next segment with kiocb->ki_pos
only bumped by the short amount, writing the next segment's payload
at the wrong offset and over-reporting *cnt to the NFS client.

Snapshot the segment's byte count before the write and compare
host_err against that snapshot so any short write breaks the loop.
