Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix missed ses refcounting
Use new cifs_smb_ses_inc_refcount() helper to get an active reference
of @ses and @ses->dfs_root_ses (if set). This will prevent
@ses->dfs_root_ses of being put in the next call to cifs_put_smb_ses()
and thus potentially causing an use-after-free bug.
A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's SMB client implementation. When handling SMB sessions with DFS (Distributed File System) root sessions, the code fails to properly increment the reference count for both the session and its dfs_root_ses. This can cause the dfs_root_ses to be freed prematurely in a subsequent cifs_put_smb_ses() call, leading to a use-after-free condition.
Отчет
This flaw affects systems using the SMB/CIFS client with DFS referrals. The use-after-free can occur during session handling when DFS root sessions are involved. Exploitation requires mounting SMB shares with DFS enabled, which is common in enterprise environments with Windows file servers.
