CVE-2022-50351 [MEDIUM] CWE-772 kernel: Kernel: Denial of Service in CIFS due to xid leak
kernel: Kernel: Denial of Service in CIFS due to xid leak
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix xid leak in cifs_create()
If the cifs already shutdown, we should free the xid before return,
otherwise, the xid will be leaked.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Common Internet File System (CIFS) implementation. This vulnerability occurs in the `cifs_create()` function where an `xid` (transaction ID) is not properly freed if the CIFS connection shuts down. A local attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a resource leak, potentially leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition on the system.
