Subject: CVE-2024-53186: ksmbd: fix use-after-free in SMB request handling
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in SMB request handling
A race condition exists between SMB request handling in
`ksmbd_conn_handler_loop()` and the freeing of `ksmbd_conn` in the
workqueue handler `handle_ksmbd_work()`. This leads to a UAF.
- KASAN: slab-use-after-free Read in handle_ksmbd_work
- KASAN: slab-use-after-free in rtlock_slowlock_locked
This race condition arises as follows:
- `ksmbd_conn_handler_loop()` waits for `conn->r_count` to reach zero:
`wait_event(conn->r_count_q, atomic_read(&conn->r_count) == 0);`
- Meanwhile, `handle_ksmbd_work()` decrements `conn->r_count` using
`atomic_dec_return(&conn->r_count)`, and if it reaches zero, calls
`ksmbd_conn_free()`, which frees `conn`.
- However, after `handle_ksmbd_work()` decrements `conn->r_count`,
it may still access `conn->r_count_q` in the following line:
`waitqueue_active(&conn->r_count_q)` or `wake_up(&conn->r_count_q)`
This results in a UAF, as `conn` has already been freed.
The discovery of this UAF can be referenced in the following PR for
syzkaller's support for SMB requests.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-53186 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
