Commit e1b21e606661 ("smb: server: fix use-after-free in smb2_open()")
is the 6.1.y backport of upstream commit 1e689a561738 ("smb: server: fix
use-after-free in smb2_open()"). It calls opinfo_put(opinfo)
unconditionally at the end of smb2_open(). Upstream
opinfo_put() returns early on a NULL opinfo since commit ee426bfb9d09
("ksmbd: add refcnt to ksmbd_conn struct"), which is not in 6.1.y, so
here it dereferences NULL whenever the open got no oplock info.
smb_grant_oplock() allocates none for a directory opened without a v2
lease, which is how clients open the share root, so the first
"smbclient -c ls" or cifs mount against ksmbd oopses:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000003c
RIP: 0010:opinfo_put+0x5/0x30 [ksmbd]
Call Trace:
smb2_open+0xbf9/0x1f80 [ksmbd]
handle_ksmbd_work+0x164/0x430 [ksmbd]
process_one_work+0x1c7/0x380
worker_thread+0x4d/0x380
Return early from opinfo_put() on a NULL opinfo, as upstream does.
The problem does not exist upstream; this fix is for 6.1.y only.
