CVE-2025-37952

HIGH

Linux Kernel 5.15-6.6.90, 6.7-6.12.28, 6.13-6.14.6 - Use-After-Free in ksmbd File Table Handling

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: Fix UAF in __close_file_table_ids A use-after-free is possible if one thread destroys the file via __ksmbd_close_fd while another thread holds a reference to it. The existing checks on fp->refcount are not sufficient to prevent this. The fix takes ft->lock around the section which removes the file from the file table. This prevents two threads acquiring the same file pointer via __close_file_table_ids, as well as the other functions which retrieve a file from the IDR and which already use this same lock.
