NFS-Ganesha 15.11 closes a batch of crash and memory-safety bugs a week after 15.10
◆ Current state
NFS-Ganesha is a userspace NFS server used with Ceph, GPFS and clustered storage. 15.10 added NFSv4.1 named attributes, Samba-style masks and macOS client handling; 15.11, four days later, is a memory-safety release fixing a use-after-free in open, a heap overflow in the gRPC client manager, several NULL dereferences and cross-client delegation revocation checks.
◆ Where it's heading
The 15.x line alternates small feature drops with hardening releases on a roughly weekly beat, and the newer gRPC management surface is now drawing its own fixes. The input-validation work that began in 15.8 is extending from XDR parsing into state and export management.
◆ Prediction
Expect 15.12 within one to two weeks, most likely another fix-heavy release with an ntirpc pullup.
