In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in smb_lazy_parent_lease_break_close()
opinfo pointer obtained via rcu_dereference(fp->f_opinfo) is being accessed after rcu_read_unlock() has been called. This creates a race condition where the memory could be freed by a concurrent writer between the unlock and the subsequent pointer dereferences (opinfo->is_lease, etc.), leading to a use-after-free.
