Subject: [PATCH 2/3] cifs: prevent use-after-free by freeing the cfile later
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2023 18:16:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230622181604.4788-2-sprasad@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230622181604.4788-1-sprasad@microsoft.com>

In smb2_compound_op we have a possible use-after-free
which can cause hard to debug problems later on.

This was revealed during stress testing with KASAN enabled
kernel. Fixing it by moving the cfile free call to
a few lines below, after the usage.

Fixes: 76894f3e2f71 ("cifs: improve symlink handling for smb2+")
