Subject: [PATCH] smb: client: fix oops due to uninitialised var in smb2_unlink()
Date: Thu,  5 Mar 2026 21:57:06 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260306005706.830672-1-pc@manguebit.org> (raw)

If SMB2_open_init() or SMB2_close_init() fails (e.g. reconnect), the
iovs set @rqst will be left uninitialised, hence calling
SMB2_open_free(), SMB2_close_free() or smb2_set_related() on them will
oops.

Fix this by initialising @close_iov and @open_iov before setting them
in @rqst.

Reported-by: Thiago Becker <tbecker@redhat.com>
Fixes: 1cf9f2a6a544 ("smb: client: handle unlink(2) of files open by different clients")
