In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock after rmmod"
This reverts commit e9f2517a3e18a54a3943c098d2226b245d488801.
Commit e9f2517a3e18 ("smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock after rmmod") is intended to fix a null-ptr-deref in LOCKDEP, which is mentioned as CVE-2024-54680, but is actually did not fix anything; The issue can be reproduced on top of it. [0]
Also, it reverted the change by commit ef7134c7fc48 ("smb: client: Fix use-after-free of network namespace.") and introduced a real issue by reviving the kernel TCP socket.
When a reconnect happens for a CIFS connection, the socket state transitions to FIN_WAIT_1. Then, inet_csk_clear_xmit_timers_sync() in tcp_close() stops all timers for the socket.
If an incoming FIN packet is lost, the socket will stay at FIN_WAIT_1 forever, and such sockets could be leaked up to net.ipv4.tcp_max_orphans.
Usually, FIN can be retransmitted by the peer, but if the peer a

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: Fix netns refcount imbalance causing leaks and use-after-free Commit ef7134c7fc48 ("smb: client: Fix use-after-free of network namespace.") attempted to fix a netns use-after-free issue by manually adjusting reference counts via sk->sk_net_refcnt and sock_inuse_add(). However, a later commit e9f2517a3e18 ("smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock after rmmod") pointed out that the approach of manually setting sk->sk_net_refcnt in the first commit was technically incorrect, as sk->sk_net_refcnt should only be set for user sockets. It led to issues like TCP timers not being cleared properly on close. The second commit moved to a model of just holding an extra netns reference for server->ssocket using get_net(), and dropping it when the server is torn down. But there remain some gaps in the get_net()/put_net() balancing added by these commits. The incomplete reference handling in these fixes results in two...
