In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: fix double free of TCP_Server_Info::hostname When shutting down the server in cifs_put_tcp_session(), cifsd thread might be reconnecting to multiple DFS targets before it realizes it should exit the loop, so @server->hostname can't be freed as long as cifsd thread isn't done. Otherwise the following can happen: RIP: 0010:__slab_free+0x223/0x3c0 Code: 5e 41 5f c3 cc cc cc cc 4c 89 de 4c 89 cf 44 89 44 24 08 4c 89 1c 24 e8 fb cf 8e 00 44 8b 44 24 08 4c 8b 1c 24 e9 5f fe ff ff <0f> 0b 41 f7 45 08 00 0d 21 00 0f 85 2d ff ff ff e9 1f ff ff ff 80 RSP: 0018:ffffb26180dbfd08 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff8ea34728e510 RBX: ffff8ea34728e500 RCX: 0000000000800068 RDX: 0000000000800068 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff8ea340042400 RBP: ffffe112041ca380 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 6170732e31303000 R11: 70726f632e786563 R12: ffff8ea34728e500 R13: ffff8ea340042400 R14: ffff8ea34728…
