Subject: [PATCH 6.18 032/641] smb: client: fix potential UAF and double free in smb2_open_file()
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2026 17:15:58 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225012349.769920463@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260225012348.915798704@linuxfoundation.org>

6.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paulo Alcantara <pc@manguebit.org>

[ Upstream commit ebbbc4bfad4cb355d17c671223d0814ee3ef4eda ]

Zero out @err_iov and @err_buftype before retrying SMB2_open() to
prevent an UAF bug if @data != NULL, otherwise a double free.

Fixes: e3a43633023e ("smb/client: fix memory leak in smb2_open_file()")
Reported-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/r/2892312.1770306653@warthog.procyon.org.uk
