CVE-2026-72381CVE-2026-72381

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix use-after-free of fp->owner.name in durable handle owner check Two concurrent SMB2 durable reconnects (DH2C/DHnC) on the same persistent_id race the fp->owner.name compare-read in ksmbd_vfs_compare_durable_owner() against the kfree() in ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd()'s reopen-success path. fp->owner.name is a standalone kstrdup() buffer whose lifetime is independent of the fp refcount, and the two sites share no lock: the compare reads the buffer while the reopen frees it, so the strcmp() can dereference freed memory. Commit 7ce4fc40018d ("ksmbd: fix durable reconnect double-bind race in ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd") made the fp->conn claim atomic under global_ft.lock (closing the owner.name double-free and the ksmbd_file write-UAF), but the compare-read versus reopen-free pair was left unserialized. BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in strcmp+0x2c/0x80 Read of size 1 by task kworker strcmp ksmbd_vfs_co
