Description
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: serialize oplock close with pending break ownership
close may abort an in-flight oplock break while another breaker already
holds an opinfo reference. Releasing pending_break wakes that waiter, but
without serializing the close transition with bit acquisition it can become
a new break owner through the test_and_set_bit() fast path. It can then
overwrite OPLOCK_CLOSING with OPLOCK_ACK_WAIT and continue a break for
a dying opinfo.
Make OPLOCK_CLOSING terminal once the opinfo is removed from the inode
list. Serialize that transition, pending_break acquisition, and
OPLOCK_ACK_WAIT setup with an opinfo state lock. A breaker which loses
the race releases its ownership and returns -ENOENT. Explicitly wake
pending_break waiters during close so they can observe the terminal state.
Also prevent ACK and timeout paths from replacing OPLOCK_CLOSING with
OPLOCK_STATE_NONE.
