kernel: kernel: Denial of Service due to xid leak in cifs_flock()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix xid leak in cifs_flock()
If not flock, before return -ENOLCK, should free the xid,
otherwise, the xid will be leaked.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. This vulnerability, a resource leak, occurs in the CIFS (Common Internet File System) component within the cifs_flock() function. A local user could exploit this by not using flock, which prevents the transaction identifier (xid) from being freed, leading to a resource leak. This can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
