Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix potential cfid UAF in smb2_query_info_compound
When smb2_query_info_compound() retries, a previously allocated cfid may
have been freed in the first attempt.
Because cfid wasn't reset on replay, later cleanup could act on a stale
pointer, leading to a potential use-after-free.
Reinitialize cfid to NULL under the replay label.
Example trace (trimmed):
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 11224 at ../lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0x9c/0x110
